How can I simplify into the line?

Hello!

First of all, sorry for my bad English.

This is one of my pictures that is converted into black & white image.

When I look this image in Matlab by using imread~, it is composed of 0 (black) and 255 (white) value.

When we look into the matrix in the red box, it looks like

0 0 0 0 0 0

0 255 255 0 255 255

255 255 255 255 255

255 255 255 255 255

0 255 255 255 255 0

0 0 0 0 0 0 ...

this.

But, I want to simply into a single line like

0 0 0 0 0 0

0 0 0 0 0 0

255 255 255 255 255 255

0 0 0 0 0 0

0 0 0 0 0 0...

this.

Finally, I want like this image.

So, how can I linearize this matrix? or

Is there any recommended way to do this?

Thanks,

HyoJae.
