Scatter Plot: X and Y must be vectors of the same length

I am having trouble understanding the error "X and Y must be vectors of the same length". I am in process of making a scatter plot of 2x48. I have made this same type of scattered plot 2x24 and it turned out ok, but for some reason I am having issues with the larger one. Here is what my script/code looks lke. Thank you for the help!

length(SDT(1,33:48))

ans = 16

length(SDT(1,1:8))

ans = 8

You are trying to plot points where you have defined the x-axis positions with a length-16 vector, and the y-axis positions with a length-8 vector. The error seems quite clear to me. What were you expecting/hoping would happen?

Thank you very much for pointing that out, I definitely missed that. I am fairly new to MatLab, I am still trying to understand how things work. Thanks..
