Matlab script to add the values of elements

I need to do the following :

Given the vector x=[1 8 3 9 0 1],create a MATLAB script to add the values of the elements. Check your final result with the MATLAB ‘sum’ command. (Hint: use MATLAB ‘For’ loop).

I think it can be simple, but i don't understand the questing. Can someone help me ?

thanks

You have to calculate the total of the elements in x -- the value 1+8+3+9+0+1 . You need to use a for loop to do that.
