How to split/reduce dimension of a variable

Hello,

I have a variable of size 40 x 40 x 2 x 102400 and i want to seperate this variable to two 40 x 40 x 102400 variables. I plan to use the data on python, but have problems with the size and dimensions of the data. I don't know if this is an easy or a complex problem but i am new to matlab and couldn't find how to do this.

Lets var is the main variable-

var1=var(:,:,1,:);
var2=var(:,:,2,:);

But this leaves me with a 40 x 40 x 1 x 102400 , how do i remove that 1.

should i use

squeeze(var1)
