A very simple question about a column vector creation

3 views (last 30 days)
I am an extra beginner MATLAB user. There is a 1:m command to create a 1 2 .... m row matrix. However, I couldn't find how to create a column vector as 12: 13-m. I mean (assume m=5):
12
11
10
9
8

If you want to decrement a vector, begin with the highest number and increment by a negative value to the desired end value. Here, the decrement value is -1:
m = 5;
v = [12: -1: m]'
v =
12
11
10
9
8
7
6
5
Is this what you want to do?

I got the logic. Thank you very much. This is what I was looking for.
m = 5;
v = [12: -1: 13-m]'
v =
12
11
10
9
8
