Creating Column Vectors
Method 1:
The simplest way of creating column vectors in MATLAB is by using the ‘;’ separator. See the example below.
Example 1:
Matlab
% MATLAB Create Column Vectorsvec = [1;2;3;4;5] |
Output:
This will create a column vector with 5 rows.
Method 2:
A column vector is the transpose of a row vector so, we can convert a row vector into a column vector by taking its transpose.
Example 2:
Matlab
% MATLAB code for creating a row vectorvec = 3:13; % Displaying the row vector disp(vec) % Computing the transpose of vecvec = vec';% Displaying the transpose of row vector vecdisp("Transpose of row vector is:")disp(vec) |
Output:
Column Vectors in MATLAB
Column vectors are vectors that have a single column but, multiple rows. MATLAB provides various functions that use column vectors as their arguments. In this article, we will see different methods of creating and using column vectors in MATLAB.
