How to count numbers considering all consecutives as one??

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi, I need to count some numbers like: Data=2, 3, 4, 7,8 9, 10, 20,25,27; Now, counting should be: 2,3,4=1; 7,8,9,10=1; 20=1; 25=1; 27=1; Total count=5 (1+1+1+1+1) i.e. consecutive numbers should be count as one together and any individual value should be one. Any help regarding matlab programming would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Badrul

Data=[2, 3, 4, 7,8 9, 10, 20,25,27];
sum = 1; % The first set is counted.
for i = 2:length(Data)
if Data(i)~=Data(i-1)+1
%Data(i)
sum=sum+1;
end
end
disp(sum)

Don't use sum and i as variables. sum is the function that sums the elements of an array, and i is used to represent complex numbers

Azzi, Its perfectly fine to use them since MATLAB gives the highest precedence to variables before function names. Avoid them if you plan to use these function in your program or just clear the variables right before you want to use the function:
However as you mentioned it is safer to avoid using them.

Here is a funny way to achieve this:
>> sum(diff(Data)>1)+1
EDIT: see my comment after Azzi's remark.

It still dont work. Look at this example.
Data=[1 2 3 4 7 8 7 6 2 1]
I suggest
sum(diff(Data)~=0 & diff(Data)~=1)+1

Well, the OP will pick the one that matches his requirements I guess; I don't test Data(i+1)==Data(i)+1 (consec. elements are consec. integers) in my solutions, but Data(i)==Data(j)+1 for |i-j|=1 (ordered neighbors are consec. integers).

count = sum([true,diff(data)~=0]);
