Hi Amy, the problem as formulated is ill posed. What do you mean exactly by "converting a matrix"? Please, provide a simple example of what you want to do.

I am assuming that you wish to get a 400x1 matrix, instead of a 20x1 matrix, the latter being not possible without dropping elements. To convert a 20x20 matrix into a 400x1 matrix in MATLAB, we can use the reshape function. To cite an example:
% Define a 20x20 matrix
A = rand(20);
% Reshape the matrix into a 400x1 column vector
A_col = reshape(A, [], 1);
In this code, we first define a 20x20 matrix A using the rand function to generate random values. We then use the reshape function to reshape the matrix into a 400x1 column vector A_col.

The result is not a 20x1 column vector:
% Define a 20x20 matrix
A = rand(20);
% Reshape the matrix into a 20x1 column vector
A_col = reshape(A, [], 1);
size(A_col)
What the OP asked for is not possible without further information about what they mean.

prod(M, 2) sum(M, 2) min(M, 2) max(M, 2) any(M, 2) all(M, 2) std(M, [], 2)
amongst others

How silly can we get, within the bounds of the request?
M(randperm(400,20))'; % :-)
