hello everyone, does anyone knows what does the con{}. means in the following codes?

Dmax = 20;
Dmin = 3;
a = 100;
b = 100;
Smax = 100;
N = 1;
Aa = 0.05;
I = 1;
t = 0;
e = 0.9;
n_max = 10000;
con{I}.dmin = Dmin;
con{I}.dmax = Dmax;
con{I}.smax = N;
con{I}.t = t;
con{I}.e = e;
con{I}.length = a;
con{I}.width = b;
con{I}.fillrate = Aa;
con{I}.n = 0;

Most likely using a non-scalar structure would be better than a cell array:

I second that. A structure array would be better than a cell array. There is no reason to use a cell array from what I can see here. A structure array would be simpler.

con is a cell (not really a cell array yet because there's only one cell). Inside the cell is a structure with the fields shown.
