Summation of values > 1 in a cell array

Suppose I've a cell array;

cnt{1}=[3;1;3;2;1;2]

I would like to sum up the values which are > 1 ie the answer should return 10 (3+3+2+2)

I've tried using 'find' but the answer only returns the indices of the values > 1 and not the values.

ind=(find(cnt{1}>1))

How can I go about this? Please give me some hint.

Answer 1

[Ilham Hardy]

sumVal = sum(cnt{1})-length(find(cnt{1}==1))

Even if you wanted to do it this way, FIND is unnecessary

 sumVal = sum(cnt{1})-sum(cnt{1}==1),

or

sumVal = sum(cnt{1})-sum(cnt{1}(cnt{1}<=1)),

[Ilham Hardy]

Yes, i agree. This way will be faster.

However i don't fully get the differences between example#1 and example#2. Care to explain?

[Matt J]

The 2nd method would be needed if the threshold were something other than 1.

Answer 2

[Matt J]

 ind=(cnt{1}>1);

 sum(cnt{1}(ind)),
