Hi All,
I have an arrays of equal length consisting of x position, y position and energy. I wish to determine which of those entries fall within a ring without resorting to doing it iteratively.
Code (which doesn't work) is:
distances = sqrt(X_Position.^2 + Y_Position.^2);
if (distances > Inner_Radius) & (distances < Outer_Radius)
X_Position_on_Instrument = X_Position;
Y_Position_on_Instrument = Y_Position;
Energy_on_Instrument = Energy;
end
In other words the new arrays (on_Instrument) will only contain values which fall within the ring. I know the answer will be really simple but I can't see it at the mo'.
Thanks again.
Regards
Tim

Use logical indexing.
distances = sqrt(X_Position.^2 + Y_Position.^2);
% create logical index to indicate points that meet condition
ind = distances>Inner_Radius & distances<Outer_Radius;
% Use that index to extract the corresponding data
X_Position_on_Instrument = X_Position(ind);
Y_Position_on_Instrument = Y_Position(ind);
Energy_on_Instrument = Energy(ind);
