| Hi John,

| How would I do what was intended:

| 2 4
| 3 8
| 9 3

| I want to index with [2,3,4] and then [3,4,5] ... [4,5,6] by letting
| i index the index range matrix. Can you do it with octave.
| My octave script works if in a loop. The loop is some slow
| so that is why I would like to use an index to the index ranges.

Please see below for: i , a , b.

| Thanks for your reply

| Best...

| | Hi,
| |
| | I'm not sure, but depending on how indexing should work this could be a bug...
| |
| | Note how the second row in b = [3,5] , used as index numbers into "a"
| | the second column ought to be [4,8,3]  not [3,4,8] as last on this page.
| |
| | It looks like octave makes note of the first index and uses it and not [3,5]
| |
| | If this is not a bug and I do not want to use loops, how can I make the
| | index work as I planned it?
| |
| | Best...

| This is not a bug.

|
| This happens because when you make a range using matrix values, only
| the first element of the matrix values are used.  In other words, if
| M1 and M2 are matrices, then the range _expression_ M1:M2 is equivalent
| to M1(1):M2(2).  Octave has this "feature" for compatibility with
| Matlab.
|
| Finally, you are indexing the array A with
|
|  a([2,3,4], [1,2])
|
| and it looks like Octave gave you the right result for that operation.
