i have a vector x=[1 2 3 1 4 4.3 3 3.7 4.8],consider a variable k=4:0.2:5, how many values of x are greater than k(i.e) so the output will show [2 1 1 0 0]

i have a vector x=[1 2 3 1 4 4.3 3 3.7 4.8], consider a variable k=4:0.2:5, I need to find how many values of x are greater than k(i.e)

 so the output will show [2 1 1 0 0]

Answer 1

First, with x and k as defined by you, the output should be

[2 2 1 1 0 0]

You can compute this by

x = [1 2 3 1 4 4.3 3 3.7 4.8];
k = 4:0.2:5;
sum(bsxfun(@gt,x',k))

sum(x(:) > k(:)') % in r2016b

[Blackadder]

Interesting! This does not work in r2014a ("Matrix dimensions must agree" error).

[Andrei Bobrov]

since MATLAB R2016b
