Delete max value of a cell array?

Suppose I have the next cell array:

 array= {[0.7359]}    {[0.7360]}    {[1.4726]}    {[1.8402]}    {[1.4723]}    {[0]}    {[1.1039]}    {[1.1040]}

I want to remove the max value of this cell array, I tried doing it in this way:

array(array==max(array))

But I got this error: Error using max. Invalid data type. First argument must be numeric or logical.

So my array is in a bad format or what can I do?

"So my array is in a bad format or what can I do?"

Yes it is, if you want to do numeric operations. Storing numeric data in a cell array makes working with that data harder. Numeric arrays are designed to hold numeric data, and let you do numeric operations on them (like finding the maximum).

"...remove the max value of this cell array"

The first step to solving your question is to put the data into a numeric vector (which it should be anyway):

>> vec = [array{:}]; % convert to numeric
>> [~,idx] = max(vec);
>> vec(idx) = []
vec =
   0.73590   0.73600   1.47260   1.47230   0.00000   1.10390   1.10400

It worked very nicely thanks
