# MATLAB: There is any function substituting for this ‘for loops’

for loop

      for n = 1:99;                                for a=1:size(A{n},1);                                              for m = n+1:100;                                                      for b = 1:size(A{m},1);                     if A{n}(a,:) == A{m}(b,:) ;                     A{m}(b,:) = zeros(x,1);                       % x = size(A{m},2)                         end                  end               end           end       end
A{n} has each different not only contents of cell but also size of cell. My meaning of this codes is willing to compare all columns of nth cell A with all columns of mth cell A.(n<m) If two columns are same,the column of mth cell will change into zeros.
for example,
A{1}=[1 0 1 1;1 1 1 1;0 0 1 0;]A{2}=[1 1 0 0;1 1 0 1;0 0 1 0;]A{3}=[1 1 1 1;0 0 1 1;1 0 1 1;]
The upper code makes them like this.
A{1}=[1 0 1 1;1 1 1 1;0 0 1 0;]A{2}=[1 1 0 0;1 1 0 1;0 0 0 0;]A{3}=[0 0 0 0;0 0 1 1;0 0 0 0;]
This code has no problem working, but it takes too long times. so, anybody knows a way to make this code more simply and quickly? frankly speaking, I don't want to use 'for' loops…hmm. I don't know it's possible..
for n = 1:99  An = A{n};  % avoid repeated indexing  for a = 1:size(An, 1)    An_a = An(a, :);     for m = n+1:100      Am = A{m};      for b = 1:size(Am, 1)        if all(An_a == Am(b, :))          Am(b, :) = 0;   % scalar expansion! zeros(x,1);          end      end      A{m} = Am;    end  endend
if any(An_a - Am(b, :)) == 0
