Hello everyone, let say, i have cell matrix {[100*2],[450*2],[300*2],[999*2]....[898*2]}. Now i want to find a distance/derviative of each cell i.e, [100*2] and others cells. from below code i got the distance values by considering one point distance. but i want to get for each distance points are '3' similarly '5','13'. i am getting an error as Subscript indices must either be real positive integers or logicals.

 load('myfile.mat');
 for j = 1:length(Profile_number)
    xy1 = Profile_number{j,1};
    %calculate derivate of 1st element in xy1
    d_begin = (xy1(2,2)-xy1(1,2))/(xy1(2,1)-xy1(1,1));
    %calculate derivate of last element in xy1
    d_end = (xy1(end,2)-xy1(end-1,2))/(xy1(end,1)-xy1(end-1,1));
    d_main = [];
        for k = 2:length(xy1(1:end,1))-1
            d_1 = ((xy1(k+13,2)-xy1(k,2))/(xy1(k+13,1)-xy1(k,1)));
            d_2 = ((xy1(k,2)-xy1(k-13,2))/(xy1(k,1)-xy1(k-13,1))); ***** getting error here as highlighted
            d_k = 0.5*(d_1 + d_2);
            d_main = [d_main;d_k];
        end
d_main = [d_begin;d_main;d_end];
profilenumber{j,2} = d_main;
end

Thanks for your help inadvance

@Adam thanks alot for responding. Please can you tell me how to get reult without this error. I tried with breakpoints/pause error in order to locate error, but for me doesn't work it out and i changed the k indexed from 14 (getting index exceeds matrixdimensions error) and also i tried with 5,9. but i didn't get error with 1.

I'm afraid I don't have the time to try to work out what your algorithm is attempting to do, I was just answering the question at hand which was why you get that error.

I also don't know what you mean by 'doesn't work out'. If you have the option selected then 'Pause on errors' will stop you at the right part of the code to investigate further.

Same issue as we told you before in https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/102145-why-do-i-get-the-error-subscript-indices-must-either-be-real-positive-integers-or-logicals#comment_614366

Your k needs to start at least 1 higher than the greatest magnitude that you subtract from your subscript. With you subtracting 13, your k needs to start at least at 14.

Your k needs to end at most at the length of the array minus the greatest magnitude that you add to your subscript. With you adding 13, your k needs to end at length(xy1(1:end,1))-13 or before.

Note: length(xy1(1:end,1)) can be better written as size(xy1, 1)

@walter Roberson Thanks alot. after i change my length(end) to 13. i got the output without error. You saved my time. Thanks Genius.

I notice that you marked that "Another Answer is better", but that there is no other answer. Are you continuing to have difficulty with the Question you had posted?
