Compare Two Structures
STRUCTCMP(A,B) returns logical 1 (TRUE) if structure A and B are the same
size, contain the same field names (case sensitive), same field sorting, and same values;
and logical 0 (FALSE) otherwise.
If A is defined and you set B = A, STRUCTCMP(A,B) is not necessarily
true. If A's or B's field contains a NaN (Not a Number) element, STRUCTCMP returns
false because NaNs are not equal to each other by definition. To considers NaN values to be equal
use STRUCTCMP(A,B, 'EqualNans', 'on')
The order in which the fields of each structure were created is important. To ignore the field
sorting use STRUCTCMP(A,B, 'IgnoreSorting', 'on')
Field names comparison is case sensitive. To ignore any differences in letter case use
STRUCTCMP(A,B, 'IgnoreCase', 'on')
STRUCTCMP(A,B, 'Report', 'on') displays a report on the command window
