MATLAB: Removing elements from an Array

arrayarraysdeletionif statementindexindexingindicesmatrix array

I have two arrays:
   A = [0, 1]; and B = [0, 1, 3, 1, 4, 5, 6];
I want to compare the first element of A to the first 3 elements of B and the second element of A to the next 4 elements of B. If the elements of A are equal I delete it from B. So in simple:
   if (A(1) == B(1:3))
   delete A(1) from B
Similarly
   if (A(2) == B(4:7))
   delete A(2) from B
Is there any way I can do this without having to enter the indices in a hard coded manner?
So in the end B should have the following elements:
      B = [1, 3, 4, 5, 6];

Best Answer

   A = [0, 1]; 
   B = [0, 1, 3, 1, 4, 5, 6];
   C{1} = B(1:3) ;
   C{2} = B(4:end) ;
   for i = 1:2
       C{i}(C{i}==A(i))=[] ;
   end
