Return the number of rows of an array

Hi, I just started using Matlab and is confused on how to extract the row indices/ row numbers.
For example, I have a function A:
A = [10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100]
I wanted to extract the row which has elements less than 50 so it will give
B= [1 2 3 4] (from row 1 to 4)
May I know how to do this? Any help and advice is greatly appreciated

You seem to have confused rows with columns:
Your example A has only one row and ten columns, whereas your example B has one row and five columns.

A = [10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100]
A = 1×10
10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100
B = A(A<50)
B = 1×4
10 20 30 40

Hi Stephan, thanks for answering. But I'm trying to return the row instead of the element inside the matrix. May I know how to do this?
A = [10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100]
A = 1×10
10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100
[row, col] = find(A<50)
row = 1×4
1 1 1 1
col = 1×4
1 2 3 4
Thanks, Stephen!

B=find(A<50)

Note that strictly this returns the linear indices, not row (or column) subscript indices.
Thanks, Alex
