Analyzing Sections of Table Based on One Variable

Hello,
I have a large table (we’ll say something like 8 x 100, but it will more likely having over 10,000 rows).
The last column represents "time in a day", and the 100 rows represents several days worth of data.
Everytime the day hits midnight, the last column has a value of 0.
It’s worth noting that the last column isn’t quite a single 24-hr time frame, so the last column doesn’t always increase throughout the day before it drops back to time 0.

However, there are not an equal amount of rows for each day.
So far example, Day 1 might have 18 rows, Day 2 will have 35 rows, Day 3 will have 40 rows, and Day 4 will have 7 rows.
Each Day will always begin with a value of 0 for the last column.
The total number of days and how many rows per day are both never constant (i.e. it will vary).

I don’t necessarily want to split the larger table into 4 smaller tables (after reading other forum posts it seems this can lead to many bugs and errors), although this might accomplish what I’m looking for.
Rather, I want to be able to (A) compare the first row of Day 1 and with first row of Day 2, and compare Day 1 with Day 3, etc.
Then (B) determine if the first rows of Days 1 and 2 are similar enough to not worry about Day 2’s data.

I have a script already that accomplished step B (previously I was arbitralilty splitting the larger table).
But since know I want each section from the larger table to have a unique number of rows, I’m having difficulty accomplishing this.

In pseudocode, I was starting to do something like:
for i=1:N
if LastCol(i)==0
% Save all data between point i and point right before LastCol(i)==0 again
end
end

One thing that I can have known prior to this is how many days will be in the large table.
So for example, in the above example, I will know that there are 4 days, which corresponds to 4 zeros in the last column.

If my request seems confusing or convoluted, please let me know and I can explain further or take it down.
In Short: My main issue is how I split the table up in unique sizes.

Thanks.

Edit:
I thought of a couple of for loops that sort of help my issue.
I have two matrices: One with four datapoints corresponding the running time of the first day. And one that is the whole table.
for i=1:Length_Table
for j=1:Num_Days
if Big_Table.A(i)==Day_Matrix(j)
% Not Sure
else
end
end
end
where Big_Table.A column corresponds to the overall running time (doesn’t reset after each day).
If at any time for the Big Table of Data equals a time when we know the day resets, then that’s where I want to begin a "new section" and end that section at the point before the it happens again.
I’m not sure how to do this task, however.Hello,
