In an assignment A(:) = B, the number of elements in A and B must be the same.

im trying to graph the sin and cos graph on the same graph and the error that keeps appearing is
"In an assignment A(:) = B, the number of elements in A and B must be the same."
Here is the code that ive put in my script.
x=[0:0.01:2*pi];
y(1)=cos(x);
y(2)=sin(x);
plot(x,y(1),'-k',x,y(2),'--b');

You’re creating a matrix (which is also good programming practice in this instance), but not quite correctly. To create ‘y(1)’ as the first row, you need to add a column dimension to it, using the colon operator (:) to define it:
x=[0:0.01:2*pi];
y(1,:)=cos(x);
y(2,:)=sin(x);
plot(x,y(1,:),'-k',x,y(2,:),'--b')
This should produce the result you want.

I've been looking for ages for someone to tell me how to fix this rather than just explaining what the error meant, thank you!
