how can i vectorize this loop?

11 次查看(过去 30 天)
% x is a vector given in main program
function y = userfunction2(x,k)
x=y;
for i=i:k
y=userfunction(y);
end

the original function works, but I am supposed to do it without a loop. LeftShift is okay with a loop,but the other one is supposed to shift it k times, which is entered by another user.

What I really want is afunction that does this without a loop "k" times:
ShiftLeft(...(ShiftLeft(y)...)

See fold()

I'm sorry, but I don't understand how this works. What would the code actually look like?
I was thinking of vector operations to complete it, but I am not that familiar with how to use it in this case.

ShiftLeftAux = @(V) {ShiftLeft(V)}
t = cell(1,k); t{1} = {y});
t2 = fold(ShiftLeftAux, t);
result = t2{1};
Not nearly as clean as I would like.
This does not really vectorize the loop, though: it merely hides the loop into fold(), the same as if you had just written a routine that did the operation multiple times.
If you want actual vectorization you should instead be using circshift().
There is no way in MATLAB to say "vectorize this arbitrary linear code": there are only ways to get it to apply the linear code without you writing a visible for loop. The results are typically slower than using a for loop.

Seems that you would like to do circshift ?
Your 'y = ShiftLeft(x)' seems equivalent to 'y = circshift(x,1)', like:
x = 1:10;
y = circshift(x,1);
Then, y becomes
>> y
ans =
10 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
If you want to shift k times, you should simply do 'y = circshift(x,k)'. Please see more detail on circshift documentation page .
