Hi, Can someone help me with this?

z=x/ length
length=100
x=[1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16]

Create empty vector for z. Use for loop to calculate the z for all the data pairs

[Walter Roberson]

It is not recommended to name a variable "length" as that conflicts with the frequently-used MATLAB function length()

The above issue can be solved in following methods:

1. When you could create an empty vector for z (as mentioned above), you can keep on reassigning z its previous value plus the new value you get in every iteration from for loop. You can see the code below for more information.

>> x=1:16;
>> length=100;
>> z=[];
>> for a=1:16
      z=[z a/length];
   end
>> z

z =

  Columns 1 through 10

    0.0100    0.0200    0.0300    0.0400    0.0500    0.0600    0.0700    0.0800    0.0900    0.1000

  Columns 11 through 16

    0.1100    0.1200    0.1300    0.1400    0.1500    0.1600

1. You can also try to simply divide the vector "x" by a desired value and assign it to z. (If this is permitted). This will give you a lesser complex solution.

>> x=1:16;
>> length=100;
>> z=x/length

z =

  Columns 1 through 10

    0.0100    0.0200    0.0300    0.0400    0.0500    0.0600    0.0700    0.0800    0.0900    0.1000

  Columns 11 through 16

    0.1100    0.1200    0.1300    0.1400    0.1500    0.1600
