replacing values in a vector with new value?

14 views (last 30 days)
Basically, I have a large vector and want to add 180 to all the negative values and subtract 180 to all positive values in the vector. Finally, I should have the same size vector with the changes. Appreciate a helping hand

v = your vector
n = v < 0; % the negative indexes (logical)
p = v > 0; % the positive indexes (logical)
v(n) = v(n) + 180;
v(p) = v(p) - 180;
Note: This doesn't change any exact 0 values, per your description.

Try this:
v = v - sign(v) * 180
where v is your vector. It will do what you asked for.
