Finite Element: Filling nxm matrix by extracting values from another nx1 matrix

I need a loop code or a function which can fill an nxm matrix by extracting values from another nx1 matrix.

Below is an example of a known matrix size:

V(2,2:5)=W(1:4);

V(3,2:5)=W(5:8);

V(4,2:5)=W(9:12);

V(5,2:5)=W(13:16);

V is a matrix of 6x6 and W is a matrix of 16x1.

Answer 1

V(2:5,2:5) = reshape(W,4,[]).';

Answer 2

From your question, V is mxm and W is nx1. Assuming that's true going forward:

n = 16;
m = 4;
offset = 1;
W = randi(10, [n, 1]); %initialize W
V = zeros(6);

disp(myfunc(V, offset, m, W));

     0     0     0     0     0     0
     0     8     3     5     6     0
     0     5     9     1     1     0
     0     5     4    10     8     0
     0     2     6     4     9     0
     0     0     0     0     0     0

function V = myfunc(V, offset, m, W)
    n = length(W);
    numRows = floor(n/m);
    for i = 1:numRows
        V(offset+i, offset+1:m+offset) = W((i-1)*m+1:i*m);
    end
end
