Hi
Data=xlsread('name.xlsx');
Data(isnan(Data))=0;
for i=1:4
Output(:,i)=[i; sum(Data([false true true true],Data(1,:)==i),2)];
end

Hi, how if the data was like below. is it possible for me to merge them?
5 5 5 8 7 7 9 9 9 .....(and so on)
1.2 4.4 7.1
2.5 5.2 5.5
3.9 6.5 4.3
after importing the excel file that contained data like above, the data need to be merge according to the first row which have same value to become like this:
5 8 7 9
1.2 4.4 7.1
2.5 5.2 5.5
3.9 6.5 4.3

clear
Data=xlsread('name.xlsx');
Data(isnan(Data))=0;
n=nnz(diff(Data(1,:),1,2))+1;
Idx=[1 find(diff(Data(1,:),1,2))+1];
for i=1:n
Output(:,i)=[Data(1,Idx(i)); sum(Data(2:4,Data(1,:)==Data(1,Idx(i))),2)];
end
