Connect the dots with a loop

Hi I have a point cloud :

point_cloud = [-1,0; 1,0; 1,2; -1,2; 0,3];

that I want connect according to two vectors :

k=[1  5     5     3     4]
l=[3  4     3     5     5]

it means : the first point is connected with the third, the fifth with the fourth

Here is my loop:

cc=point_cloud(:,1)
ll=point_cloud(:,2)
for m=1:size(k,1)  
  plot([point_cloud(k(m),1) point_cloud(l(m),1)],[point_cloud(k(m),2) point_cloud(l(m),2)])
  hold on
end
plot(cc,ll,'r*')
hold off

but it draws only one segment

can you help me please

In the first plot(), inside the loop, you need to tell it to do lines, like plot(....., 'r*-')

thank you, but it gives the same result

Try this:

point_cloud = [-1,0; 1,0; 1,2; -1,2; 0,3]
k=[1 5 5 3 4]
l=[3 4 3 5 5]

x=point_cloud(:,1)
y=point_cloud(:,2)
for m = 1 : length(k)
  index1 = k(m)
  index2 = l(m)
  plot([x(index1), x(index2)],[y(index1), y(index2)], 'r*-', 'LineWidth', 2)
  hold on
end
grid on;
hold off
