Find each element that is less than some element to its right

Question

I need to find elements of a vector that are less than one of more elements that come after it. It\'s easy to do in a loop:

x = some_vector_values;
for m = 1         


        

Answer 1

@NKN has it right. Sort.

x = some_vector_values;  

[Y,I]=sort(x);  %sort in order, get indices
dy=gradient(Y); %get difference vector same size as input vector
ind=find(dy~=0);%ignore places that are equal to the value of interest

for m = 1 : length(ind)
    do_such_and_such to Y(ind(m));
end

Best of luck
