samesize: takes any number of arrays of any type and returns true if
the dimensions of all the objects are the same

Syntax

result = samesize(A, B, ...)

Description

A, B etc are arrays or matrices of any type. samesize returns true if
they are all the same size in every dimension, and have the same number
of dimensions, or false otherwise

samesize returns true for zero arguments, or a single argument on the
basis that the input will definately be the same size as itself in these
cases.

Example

astruct = struct('a',{1,2,3}); % creates a (1 x 3) struct array
anarray = [1,2,3];
acellarray = {2+6j, [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8], 'a string'};
samesize(astruct, anarray, acellarray)

>>
ans =
1

samesize(astruct, anarray', acellarray)

>>
ans =
0
