using rand to generate numbers

Hi
I have a simple question. I understand that both a and b vectors (please see below) will generate 5 random numbers from 0 to 5 with an interval of 1 between each number. But I would like to know if there is any difference between vectors a and b or if they have the same meaning.
N=5;
a = [0:N-1]+rand(1,N)/N;
b = [0:N-1]+rand/N;
Thank you

Is this homework?
If so, I suggest you read
doc rand
and see what the difference is between the syntax
rand(1,N)
and
rand

Try executing it and seeing it for yourself.
rand just generats one random number and adds it to each element of the vector: [0:N-1]
where as rand(1,N) generates N random numbers and adds them element wise to the vector: [0:N-1]
They are obviously different. Is that what you are looking for?
