Create a new array everytime with the change of sign in an array

3 views (last 30 days)
I have an array A = [0 1 2 3 2 1 0 -1 -2 -2 -1 0 1 1.6 1.8 2 1 0 .... ], Now I want to create a new array everytime the sign changes in the array, it should look like
B = [0 1 2 3 2 1 0]
C = [-1 -2 -2 -1]
D = [0 1 1.6 1.8 2 1 0]
.

Why should it look like that? sign(0) is not the same as sign(1) . Why are you including 0 in the run of positives? Why does the 0 not get included with the run of negatives?

0 can either take run of positives or run of negatives, In fact I am trying to create based on the negative sign.

Download these files,
and then do like in the following:
A = [0 1 2 3 2 1 0 -1 -2 -2 -1 0 1 1.6 1.8 2 1 0];
G=groupConsec(A>=0);
output=groupFcn(@(x) {x}, A ,G); %return the groups as cell array elements,
%not separate variables
>> output{:}
ans =
0 1 2 3 2 1 0
ans =
-1 -2 -2 -1
ans =
0 1.0000 1.6000 1.8000 2.0000 1.0000 0
