generate index for included subjects

I am trying to generate an index to exclude some subjects, so far I tried:

  
    temp.ids = 101:130
    excl = {'126' '127'};
 
    % generate index
    incl = true(size(temp.ids));
    for i = 1:length(excl)
        % compare strings
        TF = strcmp(excl{i},temp.ids);
        % set excluded subjects to 0
        incl(TF==1)=0;
    end

When I try using:

    age = temp.age(incl);

the variable 'age' still includes all 30 subjects, however it should only show the included, i.e., 28. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

temp.ids = 101:130;
excl = 126:127;
incl = ~ismember(temp.ids,excl);
age = temp.age(incl);
