How to create this matrix without hardcoding the values

13 -1 5

-22 10 -87

I've added a silly solution, in which I don't hard-code those values, but I do hard-code other values. Is that OK?

Assuming it is not OK, then can you please explain why you believe there is a relationship in these values that implies that one should be able to create this matrix without hard-coding them?

[Tyrel Cadogan]

This was on a question on a assignment, i myself dont believe there is any relationship between the values but maybe there is something i dont know.

Yes, but Answers is not a service where we do your assignments. If you have no idea what the relationship is, then this is not even a question about MATLAB.

Please don't submit my answer for your assignment.

[Tyrel Cadogan]

Yes no problem. They are much simpler ways of taking the same approach but i was just curious to see if there really was a function in matlab where i can create the matrix without hardcoding. I guess there isnt but thanks alot .

[Tyrel Cadogan]

I appologise if you i have done any wrong. Thanks again.

Here is one way.

r = [ 1.5355 + 0.0000i
     -1.0914 + 1.0781i
     -1.0914 - 1.0781i
      0.3621 + 1.3117i
      0.3621 - 1.3117i]';
 
 p = reshape(round(13*poly(r)),[3 2])';
