Cut around the center of a matrix

Hi everyone,
I have a quick question which may be simple to answer. I have a matrix,
A = [ 5 5 5 5 5 ; 5 4 4 4 5 ; 5 4 4 4 5 ; 5 4 4 4 5 ; 5 5 5 5 5 ]
'A' is always an odd number of lines and columns, and may be 100s of them. I want to cut at my own convenience a portion around the center, like
B = [ 4 4 4 ; 4 4 4 ; 4 4 4 ]
How can I do it?
Thanks

Try this:
margin = 1; % Whatever you want.
B = A(margin+1:margin+1, end-margin:end-margin);

Thanks. Fix:
A = [ 5 5 5 5 5 ; 5 4 4 4 5 ; 5 4 4 4 5 ; 5 4 4 4 5 ; 5 5 5 5 5 ]
margin = 1; % Whatever you want.
B = A(margin + 1 : (end - margin), margin + 1 : (end - margin))
A =
5 5 5 5 5
5 4 4 4 5
5 4 4 4 5
5 4 4 4 5
5 5 5 5 5
B =
4 4 4
4 4 4
4 4 4

If c indicates the range you want to remove and would be 3 in your example, just use
B=A((end-c)/2+1:(end+c)/2,(end-c)/2+1:(end+c)/2);
