'equal' operator does not work on tables

3 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi all,
I have a 14x9 table called TABLE (it is type table) containing variables of different types (strings and numbers) in each of the 9 columns. Now i would like to apply an 'if' function to the table, which loops over the 14 rows of the table in column 9, and writes ones in a NEWFILE for values = 1, and zeros otherwise. The problem is that I get the error message:
Incorrect use of '=' operator. Assign a value to a variable using '=' and compare values for equality using '=='.
Here's what I got:
for TABLEheight = 1:height(TABLE) %loop through rows of TABLE
if (TABLE(TABLEheight,9)) = 1 %if rule applies...
NEWFILE(TABLEheight,1) = 1 %write ones in NEWFILE
else
NEWFILE(TABLEheight,1) = 0 %otherwise write zeros
end
end
So the main problem I have is that I can't use the = operator using tables. Any ideas how I can solve this problem?
Thanks,
Tobi

You need not to un a loop. You can get it with one go using ==. Let T1, T2 be your tables, and you want to comapare 9 the column.
idx = T1.(9)==T2.(9)

Thank you so much for the answer, but I don't quite get it... I don't want to compare columns of different tables, I only want to check values of one specific column in ONE table and create a new file with a correpsonding column that gives out 1s if a criterion is met, and zeros if the criterion is not met...
Sorry for the misunderstanding

Here's the table I use (it's different from the exemplary table I posted earlier). The relevant column is column 9 (urevent), where I look for ones. I want a new table (or other type) that displays 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 in the first column (as there is indeed a 'one' somewhere in column 9 of the original table. Hope this makes my question more understandable?
