How to create an animation between 2 points

Hi! I want to make animation of a line between 2 points. Let's say point 1 is (0,0) and point 2 is (5,4). How can I create an animate line between them and plot the final point(b) in the plot as well?

 Accepted Answer

A = [0 0] ;
B = [5 4] ;
x = [A(1) B(1)] ;
y = [A(2) B(2)] ;
p = polyfit(x,y,1) ;
xi = linspace(x(1),x(2)) ;
yi = polyval(p,xi) ;
comet(xi,yi)
plot(x,y,'*r',xi,yi,'b')

Thank you so much for the answer. Another quick question. Is it possible to fix origin point always in the middle so we can see which direction are we heading?
