Matrix Multiplication

Basically I have a problem with multiplying my matrices and have No idea howto solve it 1st. Matrix x(t) = sin( 2*pi*t/3) for t = -20:0.01:20 2nd. Matrix N=4000 w=hamming(N)
How do I multiply these two togehter (element by element didnt work when I transposed X and then .*'d it with w)

use size() function to get the size of your matrix. You'll find out the size of your two matrices are slightly different.

Thankyou for the quick reply, but the problem is still the same. I found out that x = 4001 1, and w was 1 4000, so I changed N to 4001. Now x: 4001 1, and w = 4001 1. However it still gives me an error with the dimensions

You need to understand the difference between matrix multiplication and element multiplication. A=rand(3,1);B=rand(3,1);C=A.*B;D=A*B';
In your code, x should be 1 by 4000.
