putting same elements in a vector

I have a problem that says "using the colon symbol, create a vector with eleven elements that are all 4." I'm not sure how to use the colon symbol to get the right answer. Please help!

Hi,

Depends how "arrogant" you want to be, as the problem hasn't set to many boundaries.

One of the many ways

B=4*ones(11);

myVector = B(1,:)

I shouldn't be doing your homework for you either but I'll give you
one more idea.

m = int32(4 : 0.01 : 4.1)

Of course there are tons of ways to do it, so pick your own (not mine)
to turn in, now that you have two hints from the two of us.

  How about 4*(1:11)./(1:11) ?

An easy way:

xTemp(1:11) = 4
