How to calculate a cumulative sum in a loop?

1 view (last 30 days)
I have a loop that looks like this:
for a = 1: 9
for b = 1 : 1000
for c = 1 : 1000
image = myimage_bands(b, c, a);
new_image = image * 5;
end
end
end
I am trying to find the cumulative sum of my variable 'new_image', as it goes through the loop. I've tried cumsum, but it doesn't work.
Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks!

There is no cumulative sum in your code, can you explain what you want?

Before the loop,
image_sum = [];
inside the loop after you have calculated new_image,
if isempty(image_sum)
image_sum = new_image;
else
image_sum(end+1) = image_sum(end) + new_image;
end

Thank you! I have another question though. How would I change the code if my variable new_image was a matrix (6 x 6)?

image_sum(:,:,end+1) = image_sum(:,:,end) + new_image;
