How to change a bit from 0 to 1.

iam having 5 decimal numbers , i have converted this 5 decimal nos to binary numbers to perform some mathematical operations.

A consists of five decimal numbers and B consists of A's corresponding binary representation. Now each element has to be compared against the remaining elements. first element and last element differs by one bit so the expected output is 10111 similarly 2nd element and last element differs by 1 bit so the expected output is 10111. the remaining 2 elements cannot be merged because they have more than 1 dissimilar bit when compared against remaining elements. The expected output is 10111,1100,1011. Thank you in advance.

For example:

A = [7;19;12;11;23]

B = [00111;10011;01100;01011;10111]

Expected Output :

C = [10111;01100;01011]

Definitely not clear at all how you come up with the expected result; you're going to have to explain the logic in what you're trying to compare more explicitly than this for me, at least...

So you want to compare 1st and nth element, 2nd and n-1 th element and 3rd and n-2 th element and so on?

The same problem occurred already in the forum. "B = [00111;10011;01100;01011;10111]" is not a binary array. "00111" is the decimal number onehundreteleven.

So please explain, in which format the values are really represented.

If you really use decimal numbers to represent binary values, this is a surprisingly bad idea, which impedes easy solutions.

A = [7;19;12;11;23]

A = 5×1

7 19 12 11 23

B = bitset(A, 5)

B = 5×1

23 19 28 27 23

binA = dec2bin(A, 5)

binA = 5×5 char array
    '00111'
    '10011'
    '01100'
    '01011'
    '10111'

binB = dec2bin(B, 5)

binB = 5×5 char array
    '10111'
    '10011'
    '11100'
    '11011'
    '10111'
