MATLAB: Columns, none under 5.

addition

hey guys!
I have a question
a= 1 0 0 1 1 0 2 0 2 0 3 3 4 1 4 0 7 1 7 2 9 1 6 3 7 2 10 1 10 3 8 1 10 6 13 5 8 3 13 0 7 4 5 5 3 0 2 1 2 0 2 1 3 0 1 2 1 0 0 0 2 0 1
How would be the easiest way to make sure there is no numbers under 5? I don't want to filter the numbers under 5 away, but keeping them in the vector by adding them to other columns.
so that the sum(a)= 200, which is the total now.

One of many, many possible ways:
a = [1 0 0 1 1 0 2 0 2 0 3 3 4 1 4 0 7 1 7 2 ...
    9 1 6 3 7 2 10 1 10 3 8 1 10 6 13 5 8 3 ...
    13 0 7 4 5 5 3 0 2 1 2 0 2 1 3 0 1 2 1 0 ...
    0 0 2 0 1];
your_mat = a(a > 5);
your_mat(1) = your_mat(1) + sum(a(a<=5));
