Lists in matlab to store iterative data.

Hello!, I am new to Matlab so excuse me if my question is too stupid. I wanted to know if there is something like list to store dynamic data. Similar to dynamically allocated arrays in C?

Hello Nilesh,
From your question I understand that you are trying to add a new value into your pre-defined vector. So for this you can just append the new value into the end of the vector, just like below
A = [A x]
where, A is your pre-defined vector and x is your new value.
Hope this helps :)

If you are putting a scalar onto the end of a vector, then the shortcut is
A(end+1) = x;

I store dynamically generated data in cell arrays or tables all the time, can you show some of your code/data?

Its more like I am testing a method for many values and I am getting a quality score for each value and I have to store the quality store somewhere. At first, I was looking for a python dictionary where I can store key, value pairs, but then a list would also do, because the values are sorted and equidistant from each other.

The containers.Map object allows you to store key-value pairs.
