Hi,
How can I substract the first value of all columns from the other rows in a table?
So I have a table like this:
1230764	205775	182354	208200	226372	225378	204289	181576
1230764	205775	182354	208200	226372	225378	204289	181576
1230764	205775	182354	208200	226372	225378	204289	181576
1230766	205775	182354	208200	226372	225378	204289	181576
1230830	205775	182354	208200	226372	225378	204289	181576
1230915	205775	182354	208200	226372	225378	204289	181576
1231113	205780	182357	208205	226375	225380	204291	181581
1242631	207147	183648	209735	227913	226996	205878	183094
1242631	207147	183648	209735	227913	226996	205878	183094
1242631	207147	183648	209735	227913	226996	205878	183094
1242631	207147	183648	209735	227913	226996	205878	183094
1242631	207147	183648	209735	227913	226996	205878	183094
1242631	207147	183648	209735	227913	226996	205878	183094
1242631	207147	183648	209735	227913	226996	205878	183094
1242631	207147	183648	209735	227913	226996	205878	183094
1242631	207147	183648	209735	227913	226996	205878	183094
1242631	207147	183648	209735	227913	226996	205878	183094
1242631	207147	183648	209735	227913	226996	205878	183094
And need to substract 1230764 from the other values of that column and so on for the other columns.
Thanks, Dion

        Provided that all variables are numeric:
array2table(T{:,:} - T{1,:}, 'variablenames', T.Properties.VariableNames)

				array2table(sum(T{:,:} - T{1,:},1), 'variablenames', T.Properties.VariableNames)

        You can use varfun to subtract the first value in the column from the rest of the values.
out = varfun(@(x)x-[0;repelem(x(1),length(x)-1,1)],mytable);
