Deleting a row in a loop - matlab

I have a loop:
for i=1:size(A,1),
if A(i,4:6) == [0,0,3.4]
K = [K; A(i,:)];
end
end
and I would like to delete the last row in the matrix but I do not know what number row it will be. How do I delete the last row in the matrix in the loop? Or should I do it after the loop?

Why do you have loop? it is a one time action, not something you do several times.
check this out, I delete the last row:
>> a = magic(5);
>> a
a =
17 24 1 8 15
23 5 7 14 16
4 6 13 20 22
10 12 19 21 3
11 18 25 2 9
>> a = a(1:end-1,:);
>> a
a =
17 24 1 8 15
23 5 7 14 16
4 6 13 20 22
10 12 19 21 3

you can refer to last row by END keyword:
A= A(1:end-1, :)

Create Spiral Matrix Matlab

Can any one help creating spiral matrix in matlab using only loops and if else conditions.
For example n=5, spiral matrix is:
17 16 15 14 13
18 5 4 3 12
19 6 1 2 11
20 7 8 9 10
21 22 23 24 25
There is a function spiral in your MATLAB installation, doing exactly what you want.
>> spiral(5)
ans =
21 22 23 24 25
20 7 8 9 10
19 6 1 2 11
18 5 4 3 12
17 16 15 14 13
You can view the source code typing edit spiral
Try this:
nn = input('');
n = floor(1+(nn)/2);
a = zeros(nn,nn);
i=n;j=n;m=1;br=true;
if rem(nn,2)==0
j=n-1;
nn=nn+2;
end
for p=1:2:nn
k=0;
while k<p-2
k=k+1;
a(i,j)=m;
i=i-1;
m=m+1;
end
k=0;
while k<p-1
k=k+1;
a(i,j)=m;
j=j-1;
m=m+1;
end
k=0;
while k<p-1
if j<1
br = false;
break
end
k=k+1;
a(i,j)=m;
i=i+1;
m=m+1;
end
if ~br
break
end
k=0;
while k<p
k=k+1;
a(i,j)=m;
j=j+1;
m=m+1;
end
end
disp(a)

Explanation: It starts with the central cell in the case of an odd number as input, and the bottom-left central cell in the case of an even input. It then, starting with 1 as the value and taking one circulation at a time, moves outwards, traverses right, up, left, down, and right again, incrementing the value to be assigned with each step, until the entire matrix is full.
Here is a custom function SpiralMatrix to construct the spiral matrix as your requested
function M = SpiralMatrix(n)
M = zeros(n);
% start from element M(1,1)
i = 1;
j = 1;
s = 1; % first element assigned to M(1,1)
M(i,j) = s;
while true
% fill row from left to right
idx = find(M(i,:)==0,1,'last');
M(i,j:idx) = s + (0:(idx-j));
s = s + idx - j;
j = idx;
% fill column from top to bottom
idx = find(M(:,j)==0,1,'last');
M(i:idx,j) = s + (0:(idx-i));
s = s + idx - i;
i = idx;
% fill row from right to left
idx = find(M(i,:)==0,1,'first');
M(i,j:-1:idx) = s + (0:(j-idx));
s = s + j - idx;
j = idx;
% fill column from bottom to top
idx = find(M(:,j)==0,1,'first');
M(i:-1:idx,j) = s + (0:(i-idx));
s = s + i-idx;
i = idx;
% break if matrix if fully filled
if nnz(M) == n^2
break;
end
end
M = n^2+1-fliplr(flipud(M));
end

How to select different row in a matrix in Matlab every time?

I want to create a matrix which has distinct rows selected from another matrix.
For Example, I have a 10x3 matrix A
A =
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
10 11 12
13 14 15
16 17 18
19 20 21
22 23 24
25 26 27
28 29 30
Now I want to create a new matrix B of size 2 X 3 from A in a iterative process in such a way that the matrix B should consist different rows in each iteration (max iteration = 5)
My Pseudo-code:
for j=1:5
create matrix 'B' by selecting 2 rows randomly from 'A', which should be different
end
You could use randperm to mess up the rows randomly and then take two rows in each iteration successively in order.
iterations = 4;
permu = randperm(size(A,1));
out = A(permu(1:iterations*2),:);
for ii = 1:iterations
B = out(2*ii - 1:2*ii,:)
end
Results:
B =
22 23 24
25 26 27
B =
1 2 3
13 14 15
B =
19 20 21
16 17 18
B =
7 8 9
10 11 12

How can I discard some unwanted rows from a matrix in Matlab?

I have a matrix
A= [1 2 3 4; 5 6 7 8; 9 10 11 12; 13 14 15 16; 17 18 19 20]
I want to do some calculation on this matrix. But actually I do not need all the rows. So I have to discard some of the rows from the above matrix before doing a calculation. After discarding 3 rows, we will have a new matrix.
B= [1 2 3 4; 9 10 11 12; 17 18 19 20];
Now I have to use B to make some other calculations. So how can I discard some of the unwanted rows from a matrix in matlab? Any suggestion will be helpful. Thanks.
Try this: (Use when no. of rows to keep is lesser)
%// Input A
A = [1 2 3 4; 5 6 7 8; 9 10 11 12; 13 14 15 16; 17 18 19 20];
%// Rows (1-3,5) you wanted to keep
B = A([1:3, 5],:)
Output:
B =
1 2 3 4
5 6 7 8
9 10 11 12
17 18 19 20
Alternative: (Use when no. of rows to discard is lesser)
%// rows 2 and 3 discarded
A([2,3],:) = [];
Output:
>> A
A =
1 2 3 4
13 14 15 16
17 18 19 20
Note: Here (in the alternate method), the output replaces the original A. So you need to back up A if you need it afterwards. You could do this before discarding operation to backup Input matrix
%// Input A is backed up in B
B = A;
You can select the indices of the rows you want to keep:
A([1,3,5],:)
ans =
1 2 3 4
9 10 11 12
17 18 19 20

Selecting specific rows of a matrix in Matlab [duplicate]

This question already has an answer here:
Extract rows from matrix and make a new matrix in MATLAB
(1 answer)
Closed 10 years ago.
I have a 6639x5 matrix in Matlab and I would like to select certain specific rows in a particular order( say 1st,11th,21st,31st rows... and subsequent additions of 10 until end) to form a new matrix.Any ideas?
Thank you,
Oti.
subset = a(1:10:end, :);
Selects every 10th row until the end, and all columns.
Example:
>> a = magic(5)
a =
17 24 1 8 15
23 5 7 14 16
4 6 13 20 22
10 12 19 21 3
11 18 25 2 9
>> a(1:2:end, :)
ans =
17 24 1 8 15
4 6 13 20 22
11 18 25 2 9

Sorting a vector by the number of time each value occurs

We have the following case:
Q = [idxcell{:,1}];
Sort = sort(Q,'descend')
Sort =
Columns 1 through 13
23 23 22 22 20 19 18 18 18 18 17 17 17
Columns 14 through 26
15 15 14 14 13 13 13 12 12 12 11 10 9
Columns 27 through 39
9 9 8 8 8 8 8 7 7 7 7 7 7
Columns 40 through 52
7 6 6 6 5 4 4 3 3 3 3 2 2
Columns 53 through 64
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 1 1 1 1 1
How can we sort matrix Sort according to how many times its values are repeated?
Awaiting result should be:
repeatedSort = 2(9) 7(7) 1(5) 8(5) 3(4) 18(4) 6(3) 9(3) 12(3) 13(3) 17(3) 4(2) 14(2) 15(2) 22(2) 23(2) 5(1) 10(1) 11(1) 19(1) 20(1)
or
repeatedSort = 2 7 1 8 3 18 6 9 12 13 17 4 14 15 22 23 5 10 11 19 20
Thank you in advance.
You can use the TABULATE function from the Statistics Toolbox, then call SORTROWS to sort by the frequency.
Example:
x = randi(10, [20 1]); %# random values
t = tabulate(x); %# unique values and counts
t = t(find(t(:,2)),1:2); %# get rid of entries with zero count
t = sortrows(t, -2) %# sort according to frequency
the result, where first column are the unique values, second is their count:
t =
2 4 %# value 2 appeared four times
5 4 %# etc...
1 3
8 3
7 2
9 2
4 1
6 1
Here's one way of doing it:
d = randi(10,1,30); %Some fake data
n = histc(d,1:10);
[y,ii] = sort(n,'descend');
disp(ii) % ii is now sorted according to frequency
