Vector Multiply by Vector

Design a program that will accept an input from the user. This input will be the first element in a vector. The user will then input another number. The next element in the vector will then be equal to the first number multiplied by the first number. Assuming that the first input is x and the second input is y, the 3rd and the subsequent elements will be x*yn where n is the element number. The number of elements should increase until n reaches 100 or x*yn is larger than 10000.

I have compile this coding but have many errors... how can i improve my coding based on the given above.

x = int(input("Enter first number: "))
y = int(input("Enter second number: "))

vector = []
vector.append(x)


res = (x*(y**2))
vector.append(res)
i = 3

while i < 100 and res <= 10000:
    res = (x*(y**i))
    vector.append(res)
    i = i+1

print(vector)

It seems like you have mistaken Python for MATLAB

i see, how shall i change in the syntax since i'm still confused

[mostafa]

that is my latest update, but still not working

x = input('enter the number: ');
y = input('enter the number: '); 

vector = []
vector.append(x)

res = (x*(y*2))
vector.append(res)
i = 3

while i < 100:
    res = (x*(y*i))
    vector.append(res)
    i = i+1
    print(vector)
end
while res <= 10000:
    res = (x*(y*i))
    vector.append(res)
    i = i+1   
    print(vector)
end

There is no "vector.append" in Matlab. print() will not do, what you expect. Remove the colon after the while commands.

x = input('Enter first number: ');
y = input('Enter second number: ');
r=[x,y,x*y*(1:100)];
r=r(r<=1e4);
