Simple question: How to set the complex part = 0 in an array?

Hi! I have this 1x5 matrix whicihcontains complex numbers -

2+0i; 3+3i; 5+0i; 8-4i; 6+9i;

How can I set "only" the complex numbers = 0 so that I only have the real part of thisn matrix? I want this -

2; 3; 5; 8; 6;

Thank you!!

Hi @Ashfaq Ahmed

How about like this?

a = [2+0i; 3+3i; 5+0i; 8-4i; 6+9i]

a = 
   2.0000 + 0.0000i
   3.0000 + 3.0000i
   5.0000 + 0.0000i
   8.0000 - 4.0000i
   6.0000 + 9.0000i

b = real(a)

b = 5×1

2 3 5 8 6
