Dear all
I just began to work w Matlab. I have an array with decimal numbers and zeros from which I have to calculate log10 and write a new array, but it doesn't work. When i run this i got error "Attempted to access log10(0.946491); index must be a positive integer or logical." code is as follows
log10=zeros(2030,1354);
for j=1:1354
for i=1:2030
log10(i,j)=R547(i,j)/R531(i,j);
end
end
log10(isnan(log10)) = 0 ; %my array
>> for j=1:1354
for i=1:2030
if log10(i,j)~=0
X(i,j)=log10(double(log10(i,j)));
end
end
end
Anyone please help me
Thank you

This is the danger of overwriting inbuilt function names with your own functions or variables. Some common ones that should be avoided:
  • log
  • i, j
  • plot
  • sum
  • input
  • size, length, etc.

You overwrite Matlabs log10 function with your log10 matrix; rename it and everything should work fine.

Try this
clear log10
U=zeros(2030,1354);
for j=1:1354
for i=1:2030
U(i,j)=R547(i,j)/R531(i,j);
end
end
U(isnan(U)) = 0 ;
for j=1:1354
for i=1:2030
if U(i,j)~=0
X(i,j)=log10(double(U(i,j)));
end
end
end

Your code can be reduced to this:
R547 = randi(50,10,15); % Created Data
R531 = randi(50,10,15); % Created Data
Log_10 = double(R547./R531); % Do Element-Wise Division
Log_10(1:5:end,1:5:end) = NaN; % Created Data (Insert NaN)
X = log10(Log_10); % Take Logs
X(isnan(X)) = 0; % Set ‘NaN’ Values To Zero
First, please never name your variables the same as built-in MATLAB functions, such as log10. MATLAB will take the most recent definition (as it did in your code) and treat it as a variable rather than a function. I renamed your ‘log10’ array ‘Log_10’ to be sure that you do not ‘overshadow’ the log10 function.
Second, if you need to do element-wise operations, use the dot operators, for instance instead of (/), use (./), (*), use (.*) and (^), use (.^).
Third, the log10 of NaN is NaN, so you only need to test for it and replace it after you do everything else.
