Creating matrix and then using it in another code.

2 views (last 30 days)
I want to create a matrix in progression. I have 10000 random values of X in a spreadsheet. i want to impost it and then create a diagonal matrix in the form of
X 0 0 0
0 X 0 0
0 0 0 X
0 0 0 X
But for 10000 times for all 10000 different values of X in one run.
Basically I want to do Monte Carlo but with the elements of the matrix keeping the diagonal values same and getting 10000 different matrices and then run another code with of those 10000 values inone run and plot how it acts in a graph.

Hi!
Not sure if I understood your question correctly, but here is a potential answer:
% Creating dummy data. in your case use readmatrix() to import data
A = randi(10, 1000, 1) ;
B = diag(A);
Edit:
for ii = 1:length(A)
B = diag(A(ii)*ones(4,1))
end

Did not get very well what you wanted to say! Below assuming that you want to create 6x6 matrices from the A,and store them in a struct :
A = randi(10, 1000, 1) ;
S_four = struct ;
S_six = struct ;
for ii = 1:length(A)
S_four(ii).B = diag(A(ii)*ones(4,1)) ;
S_six(ii).B = diag(A(ii)*ones(6,1)) ;
end
% want to access data in a field, use dot notation
B_six1 = S_six(1).B
B_six1 = 6×6
5 0 0 0 0 0 0 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 5

What i want to do is to make another loop to give me another set of matrices.
lets say i want to use a matrix where ii=n for which A = X
so B = [X 0 0 0; 0 X 0 0; 0 0 X 0; 0 0 0 X]
therefore my final matrix 6x6, say D should be in the form of
D = blkdiag(B(1:2,1:2), L, B(3:4,3:4), L) where say L=100.
i want this but use the values of B from the previous struct to get 10000 respective values of D.
