I have the following
X=[1 - 3 5 -8 4 9 -6 -3]
I want to separate the polarity ( positive values from the negative values) like this
Xp=[1 5 4 9]
Xn=[-3 -8 -6 -3]
then flip the negative values to positive values
like
Xn=[3 8 6 3]
then pass the values as a two-step
like
first, pass the positive step and the second pass the negative steps
NOTE : general methods

Xp=X(X>0)
Xn=X(X<0)
Xn=abs(Xn)

Xn=-Xn
Note : Only works if all the numbers are less than 0.
Xn(Xn<0)=-Xn(Xn<0) % alternate would work generally
