create a vector using short hand notations

? = 1, 1/3 , 1/5 , 1/7 , 1/9 , 1/11 , 1/13

this is what I wrote, y= linspace(1,1/13,7)

this didn't come out right because the spaces between the numbers are not consistent. so can someone please help me write this vector in short hand notation?

Since I suspect this may be a homework assignment or part of one I'll only give a hint: your vector elements aren't linearly spaced, but their denominators are. Using that I could define y using thirteen characters, the first two of which are "y=".

just to add to the question...

there are two vectors x= [35, 32, 29, 26, 23, 20, 17] and y=[1, 1/3, 1/5, 1/7, 1/9, 1/11, 1/13]

the question asks to do z= (x^(1/y)+y^(1/x)/(x-y))-((x^y+y^x)/x*y) using element by element calculations

my answer was z= (x.^(1./y)+y.^(1./x)./(x-y))-((x.^y+y.^x)./x.*y))

could you please let me know if my answer is correct!
