Assign user defined identifier from one table to another table

3 Ansichten (letzte 30 Tage)
Hi,
I have two excel file table; a.xlsx and b.xlsx. In a.xlsx file, identifier is assigned for different weight, height and width data column. The another excel file b.xlsx has also weight, height and width column with other data columns. I would like to assigned identifier of table a.xlsx in to table b.xlsx in new column. Any advice is appreciated.

You can use outerjoin to do that. Your keys would be the three common variables and since you only want to add the extra identifier variable from a to b, you can specify MergeKeys to be true.
a = readtable('a.xlsx');
b = readtable('b.xlsx');
outerjoin(a,b,'Keys',{'height','weight','width'},'MergeKeys',true)
ans =

This works. Is there a way to put serial no in first column, identifier in second column and after that other columns?

You can use movevars for that
c = movevars(c,{'serialNo','identifier'},'Before',1)
