How to count in nested if statement in matlab?

I want to increment the count and display the value in a message box. I'm using a nested if statement. This is my code

if sum( abs( f1(:) - f2(:))) == 0.0
       i = i + 1;
elseif sum(abs(f2(:) - f3(:))) == 0.0
       i = i+ 1;
elseif sum(abs(f3(:) - f4(:))) == 0.0
       i = i + 1;
else 
       i = 1;   
end

h = msgbox('Perfect  = %d',i);

Here f1,f2,f3, and f4 contains the difference between two images in float. I have declared i = 0; before if statement. Still I'm not able to see the message box in the output. I tried with disp() function too, but its showing only the else part i.e, i = 1

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Each mutually exclusive branch of your decision tree is either i=i+1 or i=1. No matter which one runs, if i was zero before, it will be one afterwards.

I did not understand what you want, but the code as written checks for several conditions and does the same thing no matter what, which can't be right.

Edit: try this

if sum( abs( f1(:) - f2(:))) == 0.0
   i = i + 1;
end
if sum(abs(f2(:) - f3(:))) == 0.0
   i = i+ 1;
end
if sum(abs(f3(:) - f4(:))) == 0.0
   i = i + 1;
end

h = msgbox('Perfect  = %d',i);

This will give you a count of the number of matches, from zero to three. Now all conditions are checked independently, before the second one would only be checked if the first one was false.
