Two conditional operations can be used in matlab or do I need to use double if?

for i = 1:length(beam_spalling.high)
    if transversal(i) == 0 && ongitudinal == 0
        severity_bs(i) =  2;
    elseif transversal(i) == 0 && longitudinal > 0
        severity_bs(i) =  3;
    elseif transversal(i) > 0 && longitudinal == 0
        severity_bs(i) =  3;
    else transversal(i) > 0 && longitudinal > 0
        severity_bs(i) =  4;
    end
end

For the third conditional, could be used another loop to have one or another option?

For the third one, you meant this:

elseif transversal(i) > 0 && longitudinal == 0

It looks good. What do you want please?

thank you, I saw my error

It looks like you could use a lookup table and skip the entire loop:

transversal=[0 1 0 1];longitudinal=[0 0 1 1];

LUT=[2 3;3 4];
[~,ind1]=find( [transversal(:)==0  transversal(:)>0 ] );
[~,ind2]=find( [longitudinal(:)==0 longitudinal(:)>0] );
severity_bs=LUT(sub2ind(size(LUT),ind1,ind2))

severity_bs = 4×1

2 2 4 4

Note that you have a typo in your second line: it is missing an l.
