Converting 1x1 matrix into 200x1 with same value?

Hello, I am creating GUI where I want user to put inputs. The input value will be as single number. Say 500.

My code is time dependent. Which means it is having loops which goes till 200 seconds. And calculates value at every second.

So I want to get single input from user and convert it into 200x1 matrix form so the code works properly.

Can anyone suggest me anything?

myVector(1:200,1) = singleValue;

I am not getting it. Can you give it with example?

Suppose:

My function name is Temp. And user given value as 500

So in workspace Temp is 1x1 with value 500.

Now how to use your code according to this function?

@adi kul: if this is confusing for you then you need to learn the basics of MATLAB. These tutorials are a good start:

@Stephen Cobeldick I do agree. But your comment is not helping me. Instead of sarcasm it will be great if you can explain me his answer.

If I was good at Matlab I would have never come here to ask this "basic" questions!

I apologize that you felt that I was being sarcastic, but actually we often provide links for people to learn new things, and those tutorials happen to be an excellent resource for beginners. Please consider doing them.

You comment and further question "Now how to use your code...?" could be used something a bit like this:

>> Temp = 500;
>> myVector(1:200,1) = Temp;

You might like to read about indexing to know a bit more about how this works.

@Stephen Cobeldick Now this helps! Thanks a lot :)
