converting matrix to array

Is there a way to convert a n x n matrix into a n^2 x 1 array,such that all the elements in the array(or horizontal vector) appear in row major format?

Use transpose and reshape:

>> A = randi(9,3)
A =
     1     7     1
     1     3     4
     8     9     4
>> reshape(A.',1,[])
ans =
     1     7     1     1     3     4     8     9     4
