Making a new column from old column

Hi,

I have a variable which is a column (double) of 17 numbers from 0.1-1.0. I want to create a new variable which matches the old column however if the number on the old column is above 0.5, it will replace it in the new column with 1.0. How do I do this, please help!

Thank you!

x = linspace(0.1,1,17).';
y = x;
y(y>0.5) = 1;
