How to increment from 1 to 0.0000000001 (9 zeros) in 11 rows, 1 column (divide by 10 each time)

Hi everyone,

I was just a bit confused with how you increment a number list. I wanted to increment from 1 to 0.0000000001 (9 zeros) in a 1 columm 11 row format for a table. So basically divide each time by 10. Would it be some kind of loop because mine was simply not working. Thank you!

Use the logspace (link) function:

v = logspace(0, -9, 10)'

to get:

v =
   1.000000000000000
   0.100000000000000
   0.010000000000000
   0.001000000000000
   0.000100000000000
   0.000010000000000
   0.000001000000000
   0.000000100000000
   0.000000010000000
   0.000000001000000

format long % for display purposes only
v = 10.^(0:-1:-10).'
