Counting number in a matrix using loop
Show older comments
Hello, I haven't used MatLab for awhile. I am trying to make a loop function to count how many numbers are between 10 to 50 for a set of number (without using the FIND() or SUM() function. Here is my code so far:
x=[20 10 15 70 90 111 18 10 76 31 15 67 89 57 47];
count=0;
n=length(x);
for k=1:n
while k<n+1
if x(n)>10 && x(n)<50
count=count+1;
else
fprintf('No number is between 15 and 40')
end
end
end
count
I am not receiving the right 'count' number. I am also trying sum that number together afterward. Can someone help me with the code, please!

Get rid of the while statement and index with k, not n.
x=[20 10 15 70 90 111 18 10 76 31 15 67 89 57 47];
count=0;
n=length(x);
for k=1:n
if x(k)>10 && x(k)<50
fprintf('%d is between 15 and 40.\n', x(k))
count=count+1;
else
fprintf('%d is not between 15 and 40.\n', x(k))
end
end
fprintf('I found %d elements between 15 and 40.\n', count)
