Counting the number of elements that match between a vector and a matrix

1 view (last 30 days)
I'm looking to count the number of elements that match between a vector and a matrix. I've used the code below:
K= magic(10);
vec=[0 3 7 9 11];
for i= 1:length(vec),
sum(sum(K==vec(i))),
end
This keeps giving me a string of "ans=1" values, rather than the total number of elements that match up (It should be 4 that match). What can I change?

nnz(ismember(K,vec))

Hi Natalie!
variant without nnz :
sum(ismember(K(:),vec)) % corrected after comment by Azzi
