ADDING ZEROS to the front of array

May I ask for help
I have two arrays like A=[ 111000 ] & B=[ 1111000 ]
I would like to make A become [0111000],or for example if B=[101111000],A becomes[000111000].
Thank you

So you need to add zeros to the beginning of A for every extra element in B?

Simply pad the left with zeros if necessary to make them the same length, then AND the vectors. Here it is bot both cases you gave:
% Case #1
A=[1,1,1,0,0,0]
B=[1,1,1,1,0,0,0]
% Make them the same size.
% If A is shorter, prepend zeros
la = length(A)
lb = length(B)
if la < lb
A = [zeros(1, lb-la), A]
end
% Do the operation for case #1:
A = A & B
% Now let's do Case #2
A=[1,1,1,0,0,0]
B=[1,0,1,1,1,1,0,0,0]
% Make them the same size.
% If A is shorter, prepend zeros
la = length(A)
lb = length(B)
if la < lb
A = [zeros(1, lb-la), A]
end
% Do the operation for case #2:
A = A & B
