how to create table Date/Value

i have this data (pic1) and i want similar pic2

Do I have to create the table by entering the values manually or is there a function to do this?

Unless you provide specific and necessary details, in written form, explaining what the expected output is, I will be closing the question.

The unstack function works here.

Try this —

LD = load('matlab_data.mat')

LD = struct with fields:
    prof: [728×1 double]
     dat: [728×1 datetime]

T1 = table(year(LD.dat),month(LD.dat,'shortname'),LD.prof) 

T1 = 728×3 table
    Var1     Var2       Var3  
    ____    _______    _______

    2022    {'Jan'}          0
    2022    {'Jan'}     200.25
    2022    {'Jan'}     346.25
    2022    {'Jan'}    -384.75
    2022    {'Jan'}     -171.5
    2022    {'Jan'}     1026.2
    2022    {'Jan'}       30.5
    2022    {'Jan'}          0
    2022    {'Jan'}      -64.5
    2022    {'Jan'}         39
    2022    {'Jan'}     1695.8
    2022    {'Jan'}      278.5
    2022    {'Jan'}       12.5
    2022    {'Jan'}     146.25
    2022    {'Jan'}          0
    2022    {'Jan'}     -62.75

ResultSum = unstack(T1, 'Var3', 'Var2');
ResultSum.Properties.VariableNames{1} = 'Year'

Result = 2×13 table
    Year      Apr        Aug        Dec        Feb       Jan       Jul        Jun       Mar      May       Nov      Oct        Sep

The unstack function sums the data by default for each month. Other options are available by defining the appropriate function.

Example —

ResultMean = unstack(T1, 'Var3', 'Var2', 'AggregationFunction',@mean);
ResultMean.Properties.VariableNames{1} = 'Year'

Result = 2×13 table
    Year      Apr        Aug        Dec        Feb       Jan       Jul        Jun       Mar       May       Nov       Oct        Sep

    it's possible to have it in this order :
    
    Year      Gen        feb        Mar   ..   Nov  Dec

I did not check on the month name orders. They are sorted alphabetically, not chronologically. (I do not see options for sorting them differently, so this requires a slightly indirect approach.)

To change that, it is necessary to initially use the month numbers, then over-write the variable names with the appropriate month names.

Try this —

LD = load('matlab_data.mat');

T1 = table(year(LD.dat),month(LD.dat),LD.prof) 

T1 = 728×3 table
    Var1    Var2     Var3  
    ____    ____    _______

    2022     1            0
    2022     1       200.25
    2022     1       346.25
    2022     1      -384.75
    2022     1       -171.5
    2022     1       1026.2
    2022     1         30.5
    2022     1            0
    2022     1        -64.5
    2022     1           39
    2022     1       1695.8
    2022     1        278.5
    2022     1         12.5
    2022     1       146.25
    2022     1            0
    2022     1       -62.75

ResultMean = unstack(T1, 'Var3', 'Var2', 'AggregationFunction',@mean)

Warning: Table variable names that were not valid MATLAB identifiers have been modified. Since table variable names must be unique, any table variable names that happened to match the new identifiers also have been modified.
To use the original INDVAR values as table variable names, set 'VariableNamingRule' to 'preserve'.

Extracting the numbers after the ‘x’ values in ‘x1’...‘x12’ and then assigning the appropriate month names to them is possible, however it is just easier to initially let unstack sort them numerically and then create the month names separately and use those as the variable names. (I checked with the original alphabetically-sorted table, and the new version assigns evertyhing correctly.)
