MATLAB: How to make 2 matrix out of 1 one matrix?

#help #matrix #replace #negative

Hi Guys,
I have a 8760X30 matrix, which is included with the positive and negative number. Now I want to make 2 matrix of the originally matrix with the same dimension.
The difference is in one matrix should included the possitive number from the originally matrix and replace the negatives with zero, and in the other matrix should included with negative value and replace positive number with zero.
How can I do it?

If your first matrix is A, then:
ix = find(A>0); B = A; B(ix) = 0;
ix = find(A<0); C = A; C(ix) = 0;
