Need help writing an if statement involving vectors. Total mental block :/

1 view (last 30 days)
I have a vector:
A=[14 13 12 11 10]
And I'm given another vector B that's the same length of A, and contains any numbers.
I need to write an if statement determining if this vector B contains the same numbers as A (even if the numbers are arranged differently than in A)
NOTE: INCORRECT SYNTAX, but here's the idea
if B==A
disp('B is equal to A')
else
end

I think you could use the ismember() function to do what you need. It'll return a vector of ones and zeros, so you would just have to check the returned vector for any zeros.
EDIT: if you use all(ismember(A, B)), I think that'll do the trick.

Works Perfectly! Thank you! I've got one more problem for you, if you're up for it :) This one is probably a bit more tricky.
