what's the different of "Ways to Organize Data in Structure Arrays"

When I read the doc of Matlab --- "Ways to Organize Data in Structure Arrays".

I find the ways are very similar or just the same?

 * Plane Organization

 * Element-by-Element Organization

Plane organization makes it easier to access particular fields of structures all at once whereas element-by-element makes it easier to get access to all fields of one struct in the array.

It's akin to row major, column major, though obviously not the same.

Thanks. Although I still think they are just the same. Just like "Plane Organization" means it has one struct in the array, "Element-by-Element Organization" means it has several structs.
