short programs to subtracts rows from a matrix of n length

Hi,

Please kindly help me with a short program that can do this computation using T.length and X.length. Please find my computation in matlab below and the instruction on every step.

Thanks in advance

Jonathan

The final computation answer is also given

T= [5.1000 3.5000 1.4000 0.2000;

6.4000 3.2000 4.5000 1.5000;

5.4000 3.4000 1.7000 0.2000;

5.7000 2.8000 4.5000 1.3000;

5.7000 4.4000 1.5000 0.4000;

5.6000 2.9000 3.6000 1.3000];

X = [

5.1000 3.8000 1.9000 0.4000;

6.4000 2.9000 4.3000 1.3000;

4.3000 3.0000 1.1000 0.1000;

5.4000 3.0000 4.5000 1.5000];

Z1 = T - X (1, :);

Z2 = T - X(2,:);

Z3 = T - X(3,:);

Z4 = T - X (4,:);

% get the square of each rows%

Z1 = (Z1.^ 2);

Z2 = (Z2.^2);

Z3 = (Z3.^2);

Z = (Z4.^2);

% get the sum of each matrices %

Z1 = sum(Z1, 2);

Z2 = sum(Z2, 2);

Z3 = sum(Z3, 2);

Z4 = sum(Z4, 2);

% get the square root of the numbers in each matrices to get the

% distance%

Z1 = sqrt(Z1);

Z2 = sqrt(Z2);

Z3 = sqrt(Z3);

Z4 = sqrt(Z4);

What is your question?

[Tino]

Hi Madhan thanks for your response.

I just want a shorter code to do the computation above using any 2 matrices with varying length

T = T.length

X = X.length

Please get back to me if you need clarification

thanks in advance

Z = squeeze(sqrt(sum((T - permute(X,[3,2,1])).^2,2)));
