How to use a list of indices to extract elements without for loop?

Hi guys,

I have to extract some elements from some structures and each structure is in cell.

Here is the for loop I'm using right now:

for i = 1:3
    
   ext(i,:) = Models{toextract(i,1), toextract(i,2)}.scores(:,toextract(i,3));

end

toextract is a matrix where i have the indices that i need

can I avoid the for loop somehow?

Thank you !

No, you cannot. The alternaternative is to use arrayfun() and co, but it just has an implicit loop. So I would say a loop is much better in this case.
