I have air temperature dataset obtained in every 30 minutes for a day for a whole year. I want to extract maximum and minimum air temperature for each day for a year (365 days).

4 views (last 30 days)
Data=importtemp ('observed.csvc');
Data1=Data ([1:end],1); % air temp
Do=datenum ([2013,0101 000]); date started
Dv=Do + [1/24:1/24:365]'; % number vector
Ds=datestr (Dv,'01.01.2013'); date string
T=([1/24:1/24:365])+randn (size (Dv')); %
Data1={Ds T'}

You can separate your data into days and then use max() and min() matlab functions to find the maximum and minimum temperatures.

By using timetable and retime function, you can do that very easily. The following is an example:
% Sample data
Time = (datetime(2017,1,1,0,0,0):minutes(30):datetime(2017,3,31,23,30,0))';
AirTemp = 20 + 10*rand(numel(Time),1);
% Create timetable
TT = timetable(Time,AirTemp);
% Daily min/max can be calculated by retime function like this
dailyMax = retime(TT,'daily','max');
dailyMin = retime(TT,'daily','min');

Ok, thank you boss, but my data length is 17520 because every 30 minutes in a day data is collected; so for a day 48 different values are obtained.

It's not clear for me what is the problem. The script can run even when the data length is 17520. Please try and see by changing the first line with this:
Time = (datetime(2017,1,1,0,0,0):minutes(30):datetime(2017,1,1,0,0,0)+minutes(30)*(17520-1))';
