delete the field "data" from a table in matlab

Assuming you have a table object in MATLAB, you can use the removevars function to delete one or more columns from the table. Here's an example of how to remove the data field from a table called mytable:

main.m
mytable = removevars(mytable, 'data');
39 chars
2 lines

This will create a new table with all the columns of mytable except for data. If you want to modify mytable in place (i.e. without creating a new table), you can assign the result back to mytable:

main.m
mytable = removevars(mytable, 'data');
39 chars
2 lines

Note that this only works with tables, not general matrices or arrays. If you're working with a more general data type, you'll need to use standard matrix manipulations to delete the appropriate columns.
