Permutation based on array indices

Hi. I want to permute elemnts of a row matrix w.rt to anothe matrix of the same dimension. Below is the part of the code but it gives error.

E3 =[4,73,1,76,109,224,199,134,80,253,156,177,166,167,29,48,206,127,99,234,240,93,102,231,12,65,255,78,79,254,94,239,25,52,31,46,98,235,82,251,72,5,2,75,181,152,43,34,233,100,243,90,182,151,145,188,8,69,3,74,35,42,161,172,221,112,63,14,248,85,115,218,108,225,19,58,66,11,173,160,191,142,144,189,28,49,27,50,241,92,184,149,185,148,129,204,60,17,107,226,211,122,21,56,86,247,6,71,20,57,119,214,33,44,0,77,238,95,96,237,9,68,217,116,201,132,200,133,61,16,170,163,197,136,118,215,59,18,154,179,153,180,114,219,124,209,210,123,126,207,117,216,178,155,23,54,194,139,162,171,157,176,87,246,83,250,7,70,213,120,45,32,249,84,26,51,30,47,135,198,159,174,193,140,64,13,53,24,192,141,55,22,183,150,67,10,212,121,40,37,97,236,81,252,143,190,38,39,164,169,101,232,175,158,110,223,128,205,113,220,203,130,91,242,244,89,138,195,105,228,165,168,125,208,202,131,230,103,106,227,111,222,15,62,137,196,41,36,186,147,229,104,88,245,146,187];

E=X(E3);
Error
Array indices must be positive integers or logical values.

Can any one figure out whats the problem.

Both E3 and X are of class double

When I tried to convert values from double to uint 8 i got the same error.

E3_1=uint8(E3);
X_1=uint8(X);
E=X_1(E3_1);

it is not a problem that E3 consists of doubles, the problem is that E3(115)=0. Therefore you're trying to access the zeroth element of array X, which doesn't exist (Matlab starts indices at 1)

If you do E3(115)=1 and then E=X(E3) it does work (although I assume what you are trying to do is E3a=E3+1 and then E=X(E3a) )

Answer 1

[Joseph van 't Hoff]

element 115 of your array E3 is zero, all indices have to be positive integers

Yes u r rt. thank you
