Loop over a vector and store value in new vector error

Hello,

I am currently trying to loop over a vector b1 and store the new values in a vector m1. I have the following code:

r1 = 4
r2 = 3

b1 = [0.8,0,0,0.1,0.1,0,0]

   for i = b1(1:6)
       m1(i)= (1/(1+w1-r1))*(w1*i)
   end

But MATLAB states "Attempted to access m1(0.8); index must be a positive integer or logical". Is there any command I could use that support non-integers?

In MATLAB, subscripts must be integers greater than zero.

This would work:

w1 = 42;                                % Create Data
r1 = 4
r2 = 3

b1 = [0.8,0,0,0.1,0.1,0,0]

for i = 1:numel(b1)
    m1(i)= (1/(1+w1-r1))*(w1*b1(i));
end

It works, thank you very much!
