How can I sum only few values in a diagonal matrix?
显示 更早的评论
if I have a diagonal matrix, and I use sum(diag(A)) , it gives me the sum of entire diagonal, but I only want the sum of lets say 1st three values in the diagonal? How can I add them?
Thank you!!

Sum=0;
for k=1:3 % will sum 3 first diagonal elements Sum=Sum+A(k,k);
end
You can change the range k=1:3 with an array with the index of elements u want to sum.

Without a loop:
r = size(A, 1);
sum(A([1, r+1, 2*(r+1)]))
