It's pretty well explained by the FAQ: http://matlab.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ#How_do_I_fix_the_error_.22Subscript_indices_must_either_be_real_positive_integers_or_logicals..22.3F

Hi,
When i write this little script:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
demo matlab
t = (10:1:200)';
y = sin(2*pi*50*t)
z = y(t-10)
w = y+z
plot(t(1:50),w(1:50))
sound(w,Fs);
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
there is a message error: message error: Array indices must be positive integers or logical values.
Howewer,when i write this:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
demo matlab
t = (0:0.001:100)';
y = sin(2*pi*50*t)
plot(t(1:50),y(1:50))
sound(y,Fs);
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
there is no message error.
Why?
thanks

The sound is there. It is of too short a duration to notice:
signal_duration = (200-11)/44000
signal_duration =
0.00429545454545455
It only lasts for 4.3 milli-seconds!

See attached sound making demo. It doesn't make your sound but adapt it as needed.
