Hi everyone,
I need to select elements from a 2D array. I have an index vector whose (i)'th value is the desired row to select from the array. Is there a good, simple method to do this..?
In the following code, I want to extract the following (row,column) array elements: (3,1), (2,2), (4,3), (1,4) : giving the vector: [9 11 15 13]
>> A = magic(4)
A =
16 2 3 13 5 11 10 8 9 7 6 12 4 14 15 1
>> viRow = [3 2 4 1]
viRow =
3 2 4 1
Referring to the doc page on Matrix Indexing, I thought my solution would have been: A(viRow,:) However, this code applies the index vector to each column, which isn't what I want.
>> A(viRow,:)
ans =
9 7 6 12 5 11 10 8 4 14 15 1 16 2 3 13
Could someone please point me in the right direction?
Thanks, Brad
