Array indices must be positive integers or logical values.

I'm trying to create a loop that plots the function for each t value on the same graph, I am getting an "Array indices must be positive integers or logical values." error.
t = [1 24 48 72];
x = linspace(0,1,4);
for ii = length(t)
u=1.656e-5;
c(x)=(0.5).*erfc(x./(2.*sqrt(u.*t)));
plot (x, c)
end

This will run:
t = [1 24 48 72];
x = linspace(0,1,4);
for ii = length(t)
u=1.656e-5;
c(ii)=(0.5).*erfc(x(ii)./(2.*sqrt(u.*t(ii))));
plot (x, c)
end
although you may want to experiment with it.
Note that I subscripted ‘x’ and ‘t’, since I assume that is what you intend.

Hi thanks for the quick response, but now I'm getting "Error using plot Vectors must be the same length." error.
My pleasure.
You must be using different size vectors for ‘t’ and ‘x’.
My code works with the code you posted.
