create a list that returns all male names from a list of male names in matlab

You can create a list that returns all male names from a list of male names using logical indexing. Here's an example:

main.m
% create a list of male names
names = {'John', 'Michael', 'David', 'Daniel', 'Matthew', 'Christopher', 'Anthony'};

% create a logical index for male names
isMale = [1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]; % assuming all names in the list are male

% filter for male names using logical indexing
maleNames = names(isMale);

% display male names
disp(maleNames);
344 chars
12 lines

In this example, we created a list of male names using a cell array names. We then created a logical index isMale to indicate that all of the names in the list are male. We used logical indexing to filter the names array and retrieve only the male names. The resulting list of male names is stored in the maleNames variable, which is displayed using disp().

Note that the isMale index in this example is hardcoded assuming all names are male. If you have a larger dataset with non-male names, you could build a more sophisticated script that checks the gender of each name before assigning it to the isMale array.
