this

x2=x
[max1,ind1]=max(x2,[],2)
x2(sub2ind(size(x),[1:3],ind1'))=NaN
[max2,ind2]=max(x2,[],2)
y=mean(x2(sub2ind(size(x),[1:size(x,1)],ind2')))

solves the question yet the checker returns not a valid answer.

the following 4 lines solve this question

[max1,ind1]=max(x,[],2)
x(sub2ind(size(x),[1:3],ind1'))=NaN
[max2,ind2]=max(x,[],2)
y=mean(x(sub2ind(size(x),[1:3],ind2')))

yet the online checker returns not a valid answer
