i have made a code which finds a specific value 'no' from the excel sheet but it does the job one by one. i want to automate it so it gives all values with 'no' at once.

this is the code i'm using.

data = readtable('FINALconvergencecheck_ksst.xlsx');

data.Properties.VariableNames(1) = "an6cd";

data.Properties.VariableNames(3) = "an6cl";

data.Properties.VariableNames(5) = "an6cm";

data.Properties.VariableNames(7) = "ap0cd";

data.Properties.VariableNames(9) = "ap0cl";

data.Properties.VariableNames(11) = "ap0cm";

data.Properties.VariableNames(13) = "ap3cd";

data.Properties.VariableNames(15) = "ap3cl";

data.Properties.VariableNames(17) = "ap3cm";

data.Properties.VariableNames(19) = "ap7cd";

data.Properties.VariableNames(21) = "ap7cl";

data.Properties.VariableNames(23) = "ap7cm";

data.Properties.VariableNames(25) = "ap10cd";

data.Properties.VariableNames(27) = "ap10cl";

data.Properties.VariableNames(29) = "ap10cm";

data.Properties.VariableNames(31) = "ap12cd";

data.Properties.VariableNames(33) = "ap12cl";

data.Properties.VariableNames(35) = "ap12cm";

data.Properties.VariableNames(37) = "ap14cd";

data.Properties.VariableNames(39) = "ap14cl";

data.Properties.VariableNames(41) = "ap14cm";

data.Properties.VariableNames(43) = "ap15cd";

data.Properties.VariableNames(45) = "ap15cl";

data.Properties.VariableNames(47) = "ap15cm";

data.Properties.VariableNames(49) = "ap17cd";

data.Properties.VariableNames(51) = "ap17cl";

data.Properties.VariableNames(53) = "ap17cm";

data.Properties.VariableNames(2) = "an6cd_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(4) = "an6cl_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(6) = "an6cm_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(8) = "ap0cd_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(10) = "ap0cl_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(12) = "ap0cm_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(14) = "ap3cd_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(16) = "ap3cl_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(18) = "ap3cm_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(20) = "ap7cd_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(22) = "ap7cl_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(24) = "ap7cm_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(26) = "ap10cd_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(28) = "ap10cl_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(30) = "ap10cm_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(32) = "ap12cd_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(34) = "ap12cl_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(36) = "ap12cm_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(38) = "ap14cd_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(40) = "ap14cl_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(42) = "ap14cm_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(44) = "ap15cd_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(46) = "ap15cl_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(48) = "ap15cm_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(50) = "ap17cd_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(52) = "ap17cl_r";

data.Properties.VariableNames(54) = "ap17cm_r";

display = find(data.ap10cl_r=="no");

k=display;

k1=string(k);

switch k1

case "yes"

disp('convereged')

case "no"

disp('not convereged')

end

here, i have to change the coulum again and again. i want to automate it in a way that it gives all the values where 'no' is at once.

kindly help.

display = find(data.ap10cl_r=="no");

The output in display will be a column vector of numeric row indices.

string() of that would be a string() array with the indices converted to displayable characters, such as

   15
   23

converted into

"15"
"23"

switch on these values will never match "yes" or "no"

Are you trying to display a list of row numbers that did not converge, and a list of row numbers that did converge? Did you want a column of output that has one entry per row and is more or less just an expansion of the current "no" and 'yes' entries to be more verbose?

i want all the the values corresponding to 'no'.

[Aditi]

I would like make a loop to find the ‘no’ values

[VBBV]

Val = data.ap10cl_r(display)

You can use the indices vector to find out all the values corresponding to "no" as above.
