MATLAB: Finding matches for a vector

strmatch

Hi
Instead of using strmatch(), any suggestion for finding matches for a vector? Since one warning is about strmatch() http://www.mathworks.com.au/help/techdoc/ref/strmatch.html (Note strmatch will be removed in a future release), it is better to find sth to replace it.
The following code is the example. Thanks so much! Jessica
 signal_vector=[  1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0;5 4 3 2 1 0 0 -1 -2 -3 -4 -5 ]';
  a= [1 1];
   strmatch(a,signal_vector)
ans =
         5
  strcmp(a,signal_vector)
ans =
         0

Best Answer

Use ismember
   [~,locb] = ismember(a,signal_vector,'rows');
locb is equal to 5
