selecting elements of a vector

Hi everyone,
I have the next vector:
a=[1 6 2 12 32 58 67 58 23 13 5 25 43 67 42 29 7 -3 4 5 1 2 ]

max(1)g

max(2)g

And I want to store all the numbers except (max(1)-2:max(1)+2) and
(max(2)-2:max(2)+2).

Someone can help me how I can get the vector of the pure noise without
the shape 1(32 58 67 58 23) and shape 2(25 43 67 42 29) gettting only the
noise vector:

an=[1 6 12 13 5 7 -3 4 5 1 2 ]

Thanks in advance,

Jose.

What is the point of writing max(1) or max(2)?

You can use maxk in FEX to select the two largest ekements:
% http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/23576

Next as followed:

a=[1 6 2 12 32 58 67 58 23 13 5 25 43 67 42 29 7 -3 4 5 1 2 ];

[m loc]=maxk(a,2);
noise=true(size(a));
for lmax=loc
    left=max(lmax-2,1);
    right=min(lmax+2,length(a));
    noise(left:right)úlse;
end
b=a(noise);

> noise(left:right)?lse;

The above should read (if you read through TMW buggy newsreader - like me):

> noise(left:right) = false;

Hello Matt, only i want to write down a vector which do not consider
the two shapes, shape1 and shape 2, that it is, forget max(1) and max(2).
Only I want a vector without these shapes, only considering the noise.
Bruno did it, but i have to test his code.
Thanks,
Jose.
