## @deftypefn {Function File} {@var{y} =} is_io_struct (@var{x})
##
## Return 1 if the argument @var{x} is a valid input or output structure for an
## FIS (Fuzzy Inference System), and return 0 otherwise.
##
## is_io_struct is a private function that localizes the test for valid input
## and output structs. For efficiency, is_io_struct only determines if the
## argument @var{x} is a structure with the expected fields, and that these
## fields have the expected types.
