Merge arrays into table and keep the variable names

How can I merge arrays into a table and keep the variable names from the arrays=. I have tried to merge arrays into table like this:

table(array1,array2,array3);

In the new table the variable names is shown as var1,var2 and var3. I want the variable names to be shown as array1, array2 and array3. How can I do this?

I found out that the reason the real variable names was not shown in the table, was because the arrays I wanted to merge was in a struct array.

Why not use struct2table then ?

table function has VariableNames option, which can be used as follows:

array1=[1;2];
array2=[3;4];
array3=[5;6];
table(array1,array2,array3,'VariableNames',{'array1','array2','array3'})

You do not need this, though. In that code, the table's variable names will automatically be "array1", etc. So the original post is not telling us something important.

If the actual line of code were, for example

 table(array1(1:10),array2(1:10),array3(1:10))

then you would have to specify variable names. But if it's really

 table(array1,array2,array3)

then it happens automatically.

Edit: OK, also if the line is table(s.array1,s.array2,sarray3), then you would have to specify names. But as Stephen says, you should use struct2table for that.
