How can I find the second last value of a vector?

156 views (last 30 days)
Is there a command that returns the second last value in a value. For example, in vector W = [1 2 3 4...n], W(end) returns n, how would I return the n-1 value? Thanks

I just tried this and matkab says "Array indices must be positive integers or logical values."

What size is your variable? If you are indexing along a dimension of length 1, then you will end up trying to access the zeroth subscript -- which is not valid.
A = 27;
A(1)
ans = 27
A(end)
ans = 27
A(end-1)
Array indices must be positive integers or logical values.
