Hello all: Quick problem that I am sure has an elegant solution instead of
using loops.
I have a 5x6 matrix of random numbers.
octave> C = rand(5,6);
I want to change to 1 all the elements in the matrix that are <= 0.50.
octave> [i j] = find(C <= 0.50);
The above gives me the indexes of rows in i and columns in j where the
elements are <= 0.50. I want to now set these elements to 1.
I try the following:
octave> C(i,j) = 1.0;
But that simply turns the C matrix into a matrix with all 1's.
I can loop through the indexes in i and j and set the elements of C to 1,
however,
I want to avoid looping and let Octave do all the hard work.
Any ideas how I accomplish this?
Thanks so much for your time. I did look at the boards but was not able to
find a
question matching this one. Hence I reach out on the list.
Cheers.
