Delete rows of a matrix that do not satisfy a certain condition?

Posted 6 years ago

Hello. I generate a matrix of outcomes. Suppose we have 10,20,30 values. I need to delete unnecessary rows of the matrix. My idea is to multiply 10 by the second column, 20 by third column,, 30 by fourth column. After that I delete all rows which do not satisfy the condition. for n-1, we remove all rows where an element has the value more than 30, for n-2 more than 50, for n-3 more than 60. But I can't even get 10,20,30 multiplied to second, third and fourth columns. Please, help me. Thanks in advance!

Regards,

Alex

Alex,

There is extensive documentation on adding and taking rows and columns of matrices. Look at the part options and the matrix and vector operations guide.

For example,

lst[[All, 2]]

Is the second column. You can also set the second column with

lst[[All, 2]] = {....}

And how to add a column to specific place, for example, in the middle. ,this adds a column to the end

MapThread[Append , {sr11, Table[0, Length[sr11]]}] Insert dosent work for this case

Thank you so much for your reply. Could you please give me another hint on how to delete each forth element from the list.

{{0, 0, 0, 0}, {10, 0, 0, 10}, {0, 20, 0, 20},
mat12 = Delete[lst, 4]

This comand dosent work in this case.

Alex,

You need to Map the Delete:

Delete[4] /@ lst

or

Map[Delete[4], lst]

Alex,

Look at Select[].

If your lst is numbers and not strings:

Select[lst, #[[4]] <= 60 &]

Well I make some progress, the only questions I have now. How to delete rows which are more 60(forth column)?

{"0", "0", "0", "0"},
{"10", "0", "0", "10"},
{"0", "20", "0", "20"},
{"0", "0", "30", "30"},
{"20", "0", "0", "20"},
{"0", "40", "0", "40"},
{"0", "0", "60", "60"},
{"10", "0", "0", "10"},
{"0", "20", "0", "20"},
{"0", "0", "30", "30"},
{"30", "0", "0", "30"},
{"0", "60", "0", "60"},
{"0", "0", "90", "90"},
{"20", "20", "0", "40"},
{"20", "0", "30", "50"},
{"10", "40", "0", "50"},
{"10", "0", "60", "70"},
{"0", "40", "30", "70"},
{"0", "20", "60", "80"},
{"10", "20", "30", "60"}
