Hi, I have a variable extracted from a filename that I need to use to map the data in that file to a location in a big data set so that I can plot the whole dataset. The variable is a location variable. However it takes the range 1 to 4, and is also dependant on another value extracted from the filename for its final location in the dataset.
modules 1&3 are in a straight line, modules 2&4 are behind 1&3 and offset to lay between them
4_2.
_3_1
arrangement. Anyway, the problem should be easier to see in the code...
name={'Y1Z1','Y1Z3','Y2Z2','Y2Z4','Y3Z1','Y3Z3','Y4Z2','Y4Z4'}
Sizzy=size(name)
S=Sizzy(1,2)
rowCount=nan(S,1)
for k=1:S
A=name{k};
modn=str2double(A(1,2));
rown=str2double(A(1,4));
if modn==2|4
rown==rown+4
else modn==1|3
rown==rown
end
rowCount(k)=rown
end
which gives
rowCount =
1.00 3.00 2.00 4.00 1.00 3.00 2.00 4.00
whereas I need
rowCount =
1.00 3.00 6.00 8.00 1.00 3.00 6.00 8.00
I think the problem is with my if if else statement, maybe a misuse of the logical or, but I cannot see what I am doing wrong.
Best regards,
Steve
