Hi,

I have built the following function for selecting consecutive elements 
of a list that do satisfy a particular condition. Here it is:


f[x_, matrix_] := Module[{t, selector},
(* Flatten and group number in pairs *)
    t = Partition[Flatten[matrix], 2];
(* Selector : returns true if all in list  > x *)
    selector[xx_, list_] := Apply[And, Map[(# > xx) &, list]];
    (* select *)
    Select[t, selector[x, #] &]]


t = Table[Table[Random[], {4}], {12}];

f[0.01,t]

{{0.301739,0.837578},{0.710472,0.373638},{0.950287,0.828919},{0.327263,
    0.861149},{0.734775,0.491342},{0.623224,0.365866},{0.962033,
    0.549466},{0.0602337,0.0313664},{0.293098,0.277972},{0.0841844,
    0.550993},{0.0538037,0.157458},{0.990937,0.167571},{0.752064,
    0.31988},{0.280465,0.793933},{0.801777,0.490962},{0.953202,
    0.932784},{0.0670017,0.99962},{0.329978,0.566918},{0.104969,
    0.450153},{0.269745,0.535552},{0.811871,0.172181},{0.18556,
    0.984558},{0.758067,0.0147228},{0.194623,0.816987}}

seems to work. My question is how one could modify the function so : 
1) we pick the first set of consecutive numbers that satisfy the 
condition and 2) from any partition of 10 you check the first 5 who 
satisfy the condition (again continuous) and then go  to the next row 
of the initial matrix.

Do you know any good reference with lots of examples for conditions and 
patterns with lists and matrices?


Thank you very much in advance.
