I want c to be the mean of a starting from 1 to n

c(2) =1+4 / 2
c(3) = 1+4+10 / 3
c(4)=1+4+10+11 / 4

No-loop method
There's no need for a loop.
b = cumsum(a)./(1:length(a));
Loop method
If you must use a loop...
b = zeros(size(a));
for i = 1:length(a)
b(i) = sum(a(1:i))/i;
end
If you want that in a table,
t = table(a',b','VariableNames',{'a','b'});
