Thread Subject: get a 1d vector from a multidimensional array

i have an array that i index with 3 numbers, ie:

Normalized_Moment_Values(1, 1, 1) returns a double

However, I want all the things that correspond to (1,1,x),
so i usually do

Normalized_Moment_Values(1, 1, :)

however, this returns:

ans(:,:,1) =

    1.0693


ans(:,:,2) =

    1.4594


ans(:,:,3) =

   -0.5926


ans(:,:,4) =

    0.9791


and it wont put that into a 1d array, namely [1.06 1.4 -.59 .97]

how would i do this?

Thanks

David

Does

» x=rand(3)
x =
     0.9501 0.4860 0.4565
     0.2311 0.8913 0.0185
     0.6068 0.7621 0.8214
» y=x(:,1)
y =
     0.9501
     0.2311
     0.6068
» z = y'
z =
     0.9501 0.2311 0.6068
»

give you any ideas???

ummm no not really, that is how it usually works, but this
is not giving me a 1d thing back , it is giving me a 3d
thing, thats what i'm trying to avoid.

David Doria:
<SNIP should squeeze his/her children...

one of the solutions

     v=rand(2,3,3)
     vs=squeeze(v(1,1,:))
