Hi
I have an matrix with dimensions 5 x 200 x 100, I want to extract the data encoded in the 2nd and 3rd bit of the first byte (first byte means 1 x 200 x 100).
similarly i would need the data encoded in the 4th and 5th bit also.
Please note that by "data" i mean a digit between 0-3 (as it is being extracted from 2 bits)
Best regards, Muhammad

There are arithmetic means, and there is bitget()

Thanks walter. But I have used bitget and got following response.
??? Undefined function or method 'bitget' for input arguments of type 'int8'.
additionally, bit get can give me value of one bit (i.e. either 0 or 1). Where as i need the integer value of combined bits 2-3 (so the answer should be an integer among 0,1,2 or 3.

bitget(int8(23), 1:5)
ans = 1×5
1 1 1 0 1
But that is current day; perhaps int8 was not supported back in 2012.

x = floor(rand(5, 200, 100) * 256);
a = rem(x(1, :, :) / 2, 4);
Are these the 2nd and 3rd "bits" you are looking for? It depends on the counting direction and if you start with 0 or 1.
See also bitget.

Thanks Jan. No I am not looking for the bits themselves. I am looking for the integers packed in 2-3 bits. So the answer I am looking for should be an integer among 1,2,3 or 4

Bit late with an answer, but this should work for you:
Note that if the bits are not contiguous you could still extract the data, but it will be a bit more work...
% start with a multi dimensional array of uint8
% (any number of dimensions should work)
myData = uint8(randi(255,[10,20,30]));
% create a mask with ones in the bit positions you want:
mask1 = 0b00110000; % extract 2 bits in positions 2,3
mask2 = 0b00011100; % extract 3 bits in positions 3,4,5
% now do bit and, and shift to get the number
data1 = bitand(myData, mask1)/16; % shift right by 4
data2 = bitand(myData, mask2)/4; % shift right by 2
% observe the results:
figure
subplot(2,1,1)
histogram(data1(:));
subplot(2,1,2);
histogram(data2(:));
