Finding specific elements in matrix without using loops or conditional statements
显示 更早的评论
Trying to find the sum of certain elements in a matrix. In this particular case, I'm trying to find all elements of the first row, all elements of the 2nd row from the 2nd element on, all elements of the 3rd row from the 3rd element on, and so on, so that it kinda of staircases its way down the element. I'm assuming there's a way to do this using the find function, but it isn't popping out at me. Thank you for any help!

The stair case step you said will give you upper triangular matrix. You can make upper triangular matrix of given matrix and find it's sum. doc triu.
M = rand(5) ;
iwant = triu(M) ;
sum_iwant = sum(iwant(:)) ;

Because this sound like a homework, here is a hint only:
mask = triu(true(size(X)));
X(~mask) = 0;
Of course a simple loop solves your problem also:
X = rand(4, 4);
Result = zeros(1, 4);
for iRow = 1:4
Result(iRow) = sum(...)
end
