outputting the left side of pairs in array

Hi guys, I have an array for instance y=[1 2 3 4 5 6]

I want to output the values that its indexes are the middle of the left side and right of every pair with increasing index (I mean at index=1 and index=3 then the middle between is at index=2 , then I look at index=3 etc ..), this mean I look at 1 3 and the value 2 is the middle between those two pair, then I look on the other pair 3 5 and I print the value 4 ..etc

so my output in my case is an array that have the values that are the middle of every pair , in my case output=[2 4 5]

so how could I implement that in matlab? thanks alot for your help!

why is 3 being excluded from the output array?

[2 4 5] or [2 4 6]?

[2 4 5]

[Mohamed Jamal]

6 excluded because it's not between two values .. 5 is included because it's between 4 ,6 values

[Mohamed Jamal]

sorry 3 also must be included !! sorry for the missing.

[KSSV]

Write your expected output.....[2 4 5]?

[jonas]

perhaps you want to exclude the two edge values?
