Deleting Cells in Matrix

I have a Matrix 32x5

Looking at every row one at a time.

Am I able to delete all cells that are 3 greater or 3 less than the other cells in that row and then add a zero to the bottom of the column of the deleted cell to keep the matrix complete?

Thanks

You talked about cells but I suspect that you mean column entries?

Hi Walter,

Yes i mean column entries

Thanks

num2cell with 1 as the second parameter. That will give you a cell array of column vectors you can process individually. Loop might be easiest. For each delete as appropriate, then pad out to the common length, store back. cell2mat to get back to the array form.
