Re: arbitrary rotating values of an array

[Rick T]

Thanks

in case someone wanted to see working code

%permute array

clear all,clc

array=[11,22,33,44,55]

cycle_permute_rt = @(array, k) [array(mod((1:end)-k-1, end)+1 )]

aa=[];

bb=[];

for ii=0:1:4

a=cycle_permute_rt(array, ii)

aa=[aa;a]

end;

for ii=0:-1:-4

b=cycle_permute_rt(array, ii)

bb=[bb;b]

end;

This sounds like an X-Y problem:

   http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node_id=542341

Regardless, it's simple to do:

   cycle_permute = @(array, k) [array(k+1, end), array(1:k)]
   cycle_permute(array, 1)
   cycle_permute(array, 2)

etc
