I am looking for a way to take the values from a matrix and sorting them into different empty arrays.

Im looking for a way to take the values from matrix(given under) and sorting them into diffrent empty arrays (A and B).

A = char.empty;
B = char.empty;
vector1 = [1,0,0,0,0,1]';
vector2 = ([1,2,4,6,6,1])';
matrix = [vector2, vector1]

matrix =

1 1

2 0

4 0

6 0

6 0

1 1

My goal is to have the script recognize what values have a 1 behind it and what values have a 0 behind it so that A and B ends up looking something like this:

A = [1,1]  %A being the array with values from matrix(:,1) that has a 1 in matrix(:,2)
B = [2,4,6,6] %B being the array with values from matrix(:,1) that has a 0 in matrix(:,2)

The ulttimate goal for the script segment is to have it funcion for any vector2, by manipulating vector1 from a zeroes vector using a menu system of sorts

%zero being the zeroes vector
zero = zeros(6:1)
%and want this to be manipulated using a menu or something to become a vector composed of
%ones and zeroes according to a selection in the menu
%so that it ends up looking like vector1 from the code above

Sorry if its badly formulated but my english is'nt the best in the world and my understanding of Matlab is a little subpar, so if you have questions about what im trying to achieve then feel free to ask. And thank you in advance for any help.

A=vector2(vector1==1);
B=vector2(vector1==0);

So this way you wouldnt need to define A or B beforehand correct?

and is there a way of using the menu fucntion to create vector1 by modifying zero:

zero = zeros(6:1)

for any scalar based vector2?

For Context

I'm trying to create the Dice 10 000 game in a semi fancy way. so i already have the points and dice function figured out. Just need to script the game, and my main issue is the User Interface Menu

[David Hill]

vector1=zeros(size(vector2));
idx=input('where you want the ones, like [1,6]');
vector1(idx)=1;

Okay thanks dude!

This makes alot of sense, is it applicable to be used in a menu of sorts?

Like can i display vector2 in a menu where each of the elements of vector2 is selectable, and the ones gets placed in vector1 according to which of the elements of vector2 is selected?

Again thank you for the help

Dont know is this "drawing" helps:

[David Hill]

Look at uipanel() and uicheckbox() and follow the examples.

[Tore Henriksen Eliassen]

okei thanks alot
