How to keep values whose corresponding index is present?

2 views (last 30 days)
Hi all
array1 = {1,1,1,0.92,0.61,0.47,0,0;1.6,1,1,1,0.6,0.5,0.4,0.8};
array2 = {[3,4,5,6];[4,5,7,8]};
I need to keep only those values in array 1 whose corresponding index value is present in array2. e.g. Result may look like this:
ResultantArray = {[1,0.92,0.61,0.47];[1,0.6,0.4,0.8]}
Thanks in advance.

ResultantArray = arrayfun(@(Row) cell2mat(array1(Row,array2{Row})), (1:size(array1,1)).', 'uniform', 0)

Try this:
array1 = {1,1,1,0.92,0.61,0.47,0,0;1.6,1,1,1,0.6,0.5,0.4,0.8};
array2 = {[3,4,5,6];[4,5,7,8]};
ResultantArray = cellfun(@(idx) array1(:,idx), array2, 'Uni',0);
ResultantArray{1}(1,:)
ResultantArray{2}(2,:)
ans =
1×4 cell array
{[1]} {[0.9200]} {[0.6100]} {[0.4700]}
ans =
1×4 cell array
{[1]} {[0.6000]} {[0.4000]} {[0.8000]}
