Interpolate points between two coordinates

I have the coordinates of points A and B, and I would like to obtain the coordinates of N number of points between A ans B if connected by a straight line

Since you are doing linear interpolation, you can just use the linspace function.

A = [1,7];
B = [6,1];
N = 5; % You can change this number for number of points

x = [A(1) B(1)];
y = [A(2) B(2)];

scatter(x,y,'filled')
hold on
New_x = linspace(x(1),x(2),N+2); % Includes given points
New_y = linspace(y(1),y(2),N+2); % Includes given points
New_x(end)=[];
New_x(1)=[];
New_y(end)=[];
New_y(1)=[];
scatter(New_x,New_y,'r','filled')
