RE: Easy about Matrices

[Frank Palazzolo]

This syntax works as well:

x = randn(1,1000);
x_positive = (x>=0);
x_negative = (x<0);

I'm not sure if it's any more efficient, but it seems it would be, since it
never needs to build an explicit index vector.

I'm not completely sure if this is what you're looking for, but maybe 
this example helps:

x = randn(1,1000);
x_positive = x(find(x>=0));
x_negative = x(find(x<0));
