For Loops with Increments Less Than One

I have to solve this equation with a for loop from 1 to 10 in increments of .01, but what I'm doing isn't working and I don't know why. It works just the way I want to when I take a way the constraint for the increment. Here's what I'm doing:
for t=1:.01:10
x(t)=a*cos((sqrt(g/l))*t)
end

 Accepted Answer

t=1:.01:10;
for i=1:length(t)
x(i)=a*cos((sqrt(g/l))*t(i))
end

Although, this entire loop could be done in one line,
x=a*cos((sqrt(g/l)) * (1:0.01:10) )
Oh my gosh! Thank you... I have so much trouble with loops...
Yes, I know it can be done in one line. However, I have to use a for loop.
Thank you!
