how to convert 2D matrix to 1D

i want to convert 2D array with size 83*6580 to 1D array , any help ?

Answer 1

[Star Strider]

If you just want to make a vector out of it, use the ‘(:)’ notation:

A = rand(83,6580);
V = A(:);

‘V’ is a (546140x1) double.

The answer is perfect and working fine.

To make V as 1D array, transpose it.

   V = V'; % 1x546140

"To make V as 1D array"

Unlike some languages MATLAB does not have any concept of 1D arrays: all arrays have atleast 2 explicit dimensions and infinite implicit trailing singleton dimensions. Because the first dimension is the row dimension the most "basic" kind of vector is actually a column vector.

Alright I also want to add a precaution here while using it, It operates in column wise concatenation.

To Convert a 2D Matrix into a 1D Array( i.e a row vector), such that row vector is formed by concatenating consecutive rows of the 2D Matrix, use the following Code :

OneDArray = reshape(TwoDArray',[1 size(TwoDArray,1)*size(TwoDArray,2)]);

I dig the matrix math here didnt even thing of doing it like this.

Simpler:

OneDArray = reshape(TwoDArray.',1,[]);
