How to convert from a for loop to a while loop

function [y] = HW5_P2(n)
%This function file determines the value of n^2 over the range 1 to n
for i = 3:3:n
x = [1:i];
y = x.^2;
subplot(2,2,i/3);
plot(x,y),xlabel('x'),ylabel('y'),title(num2str(i/3))
end
end

Don't use the variable i, it's used by Matlab to represent complex numebers
ii=3
while ii<n
x = [1:ii];
y = x.^2;
subplot(2,2,ii/3);
plot(x,y),xlabel('x'),ylabel('y'),title(num2str(ii/3))
ii=ii+3
end
