Question

Problem Summary This is a basic problem that uses a for-loop. Write a function called vector_multiply that takes two vectors of the same length as input arguments and returns one row vector as output Each component of the output vector is the product of the corresponding components in the two input vectors. However, this function must not use an array operation it must instead use a for-loop. For example, >>product - vector_multiply([1, 2, 3, 6], [9, 6, 4, 0]) product - 9 12 12 You may submit your work as many times as you want. Try to get 100%!

Answer 1

function v = vector_multiply(a, b)
    if length(a) ~= length(b)
        error('Input vectors must be the same length.')
    end
    for ii=1:length(a)
        v(ii) = a(ii) * b(ii);
    end
end

product = vector_multiply([1, 2, 3, 6], [9, 6, 4, 0]), product = 9 12 12 o
