Re: Can this be vectorised?

Hi,

I've got two vectors X and Y. I want to create a new vector Z which
has
the same number of entries as Y and each element the result of a
conditional expression applied to the original X i.e.

Z = X(X < Y);

This fails because both X and Y are vectors. Is there a syntax that
allows me to iterate on each y in Y without using a for loop?

i.e.

i=1:length(Y)
X(i) = X(X<Y(i));
end

Dave



That expression works for me provided x and y are the same length
.
