Search a matrix combined with logical indexing

Hi, I have a matrix A and would like to scan through the values row by row until I find a value above x and stop there. The values prior to x will become 0.

For example: Matrix A = [3 10 2 5; 2 14 5 3] and I want values above 10. The new Matrix I am looking for is = [ 0 0 0 0; 0 14 5 3]. However, I do not want to individually change the first 5 elements of the matrix, I want the code to scan through values. How can I accomplish this?

Thanks!

>> A = [3,10,2,5;2,14,5,3]
A =
    3   10    2    5
    2   14    5    3
>> N = 10;
>> B = A.*(cumsum(A>N,2)>0)
B =
    0    0    0    0
    0   14    5    3

Hi,

Here is a quick and a bit crude way of solving this or similar issues:

clearvars
A = [3  10 2 5; 2 14 5 3];
Anew = [A(1,:), A(2,:)];  % Making up row matrix
Index = find(Anew>10);    % Finding the elements meeting the set condition (s)
N=numel(Anew);            % Countiing the number of elements
AN = [Anew(1:Index-1)*0, Anew(Index:N)];  % Sort out all elements w.r.t. the set conditions
ANnew = [AN(1:N/2); AN( N/2+1:N)]  %#ok

Good luck
