I have the following variables:
x = [0 1 2 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9];
y = [0 1 2 nan 3 4 5 6 7 8 9];
I would like to pass 'y' through an equation to give 'y2', for example:
y2 = y.*2;
Note this is just an example. The real equation I have is more complicated. The 'real' equation does not allow nans to be within the vector (as one value depends on the last).
If I can't have nans passing through the equation, however, I can type
y2 = y(~isnan(y)).*2;
y2 =
0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18
This removes the nan and then performs the calculation.
How can I make 'y2' to be back to the same length as 'x' i.e. with a nan as the fourth value?
Something like:
y2 =
0 2 4 NaN 6 8 10 12 14 16 18
The reason I'm doing this is that I want to plot 'y2' against 'x' and thus they must be the same size.
I realize that I can do
x2 = x(~isnan(y))
and then just plot 'x2' against 'y2' but I would like to find a way of doing it the way I specify above.
