How can I split an array into different arrays defined by an index?

4 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hello all,
I have a large array of household income data and an index for the spatial unit the household is located in.
A= [AT1,24566;
AT1,40521;
AT2,32512;
BE1,66542;
.
.
.]
I would like to transform that array into arrays according to the spatial index so I can compute GINI coefficients in a next step.
Thank you Dragos

Is AT1 a variable storing a number? or did you mean
A={'AT1',24566;
'AT1',40521;
'AT2',32512;
'BE1',66542 ...}
if A is stored as above than to extract AT1 household incomes you could do:
AT1_HouseHoldIncome=cell2mat(A(strcmpi(A(:,1),'AT1'),2))
AT1_HouseHoldIncome =
24566
40521

I can think of another workaround. I assign to every region code a number (AT1 then becomes 1) and define my data as matrix. how would the code change?
Thanks a lot

If A is matrix like:
A=[1,24566;
1,40521;
2,32512;
3,66542 ...]
then
AT1_HouseHoldIncome=A( A(:,1)==1 ,2);
so A(:,1)==1 pretty much masks all those rows in first column that are storing 1 and then A( A(:,1)==1, 2) returns the second column for those rows.
Refer to Logical Indexing for more info on these type of indexing in MATLAB.
