How to avoid having duplicate index result?

2 views (last 30 days)
I have written this code it works correct but one thing is that when I run it it gives me duplicate result how can I avoid repetion if I run it for 24 times.
x=zeros(4,4);
temp=0;
test=zeros(3,3);
b=sum(x,1);
r=randperm(4);
for i=1:4
temp=0;
for j=1:4
% r=randi([1,3]);
if temp~=r(j)
temp=r(j);
if sum(x(i,:))==0 && b(temp)==0
x(i,temp)=1;
end
end
end
b=sum(x,1);
end
x

Original (better explained) question, with simple three line answer:
@Hardi Mohammed: why do refuse to use perms, which is the best way to generate those 6/24/... permutations that you request. Please explain why perms does not work for you.

@Stephen Cobeldick
it works well but I have problem when I change the size of matrix for 2 row 3 column
then it does not give all the possiblites

If I assume, that this code satisfies your needs for 1 call:
x = zeros(4, 4);
x(sub2ind(size(x), 1:4, randperm(4,4))) = 1;
I assume, that this creates all wanted results:
order = perms(1:4);
n = size(order, 1);
order = order(randperm(n, n), :); % If a random order is wanted
x = zeros(4, 4, n);
for k = 1:n
index = sub2ind([4, 4, n], 1:4, order(k, :), repmat(k, 1, 4));
x(index) = 1;
end
Now x(:, :, k) is the wanted submatrix.

you can leave out the sub2ind ...
x = eye(4) ;
x = x(randperm(4),:)

@Jos: Your are correct, but the sub2ind method is not needed for the random permutation, but for the construction of all 24 different matrices.

This also produces the N! possibilities. No loop, no sub2ind, only the outcome of perms as column indices ...
N = 4
X = eye(N) ;
X = reshape(X(:, perms(1:N).'), N, N, [])
