Assigning index of elements

I have the following `for-loop` part of a function:

    for i=1:5
    for j=1:2
    m=x(i)-c(j);
    end
    end

As a call to the function which includes the code above, I pass `two` values for `c`. Say the values passed are `(3,5)` for `c1` and `c2` respectively.

As you see in the `for-loop` above, I will have a two values for `c`, nanely, `c(1)` and `c(2)`.

For the `3` and `5` values I have above, how can I assign them to `c(1)` and `c(2)` respectively?

When I did the following for instance:

    c(1)=center1;
    c(2)=center2;

where `center1` and `center2` represent the passed value to the function, I got the following error:

    In an assignment  A(I) = B, the number of elements in B and I must be
    the same.

    Error in functionName (line 32)
        c(1)=center1;

Thanks.

What is the value of center1?

What are the dimensions of center1 and center2?
