Conditional statement in a for/if loop

Hi,

I'm trying to write a loop with 5 variables. Here's what I want to do in words, but can't make my code work

for every value of Frame

if LBOS > RBOS

give LDSM

else give RDSM

I'd like the results to be displayed in a table alongside the associated Frame value. I hope that makes sense.

Thanks very much!

How is your data?

whos Frame 
whos LBOS
whos RBOS
whos LDSM
whos RDSM

Try this:

res = RDSM;
res(LBOS > RBOS) = LDSM(LBOS > RBOS);
T2 = table(frame,res);

Perfect - thank you :)

T = readtable('file.csv');
frame = T{:,1};
LDSM = T{:,2};
RDSM = T{:,3};
LBOS = T{:,4};
RBOS = T{:,5};
