A complicated matrix manipulation

So I have a matrix, let's say
A = [1 2;
1 0;
3 2;
0 1;
2 1;
1 2];
[r,c] = size(A);
In general, what I would like to do is:
for i = 1:r-1
x = A(6,1)*A(i,1) + A(6,2)*A(i,2);
end
However, here is the issue: if A(i,1) and/or A(i,2) is zero, and let's assume just A(i,1) is 0 and A(i,2) is non-zero, then, instead I would like to do:
x = A(6,1)*A(i-1,1) + A(6,2)*A(i,2);
And in case, even A(i-1,1) is also zero, then, I would like to do:
x = A(6,1)*A(i-2,1) + A(6,2)*A(i,2);
and so on and so forth (same for A(i,2)). Note, A(1,1), A(1,2), A(6,1), A(6,2) are always non-zeros. I am trying to get my head around it, but so far no luck, although it seems it should have a simple and efficient way.
Your help is highly appreciated. Please let me know if anything seems confusing.
Thanks in advance!

Your example matrix only has five rows, so none of your example code accessing its (non-existent) sixth row will work.

Try this reasonably "simple and efficient way":
r = size(A,1);
x = nan(r,1);
for k = 1:r
r1 = find(A(1:k,1),1,'last');
r2 = find(A(1:k,2),1,'last');
x(k) = A(6,1).*A(r1,1) + A(6,2).*A(r2,2);
end

'...generalizing it for "n" number of columns of A'
C = cumsum(A(:)~=0,1); % requires that first and last rows do not contain zeros!
B = nonzeros(A);
B = reshape(B(C),size(A));
x = sum(A(6,:).*B,2)
Personally I would just use a loop, as it makes the code intent much clearer.

i agree for loops are clearer, but when you have a large-sized A with 10,000 columns, like i do, it is better getting the job done without a for loop. but as i said, i agree with you - in fact, i am not sure what's happening in the code you just provided so i will be figuring it out. thanks a lot man! really appreciate your help
