Recording values from a loop

I am using a nested for loop to create an index of calculated values. I need it so everytime a value of T is calculated to be reported in order for the first iteration of the loop to the end. In this format:

where beds is the number of loops, n=beds

T1 T2 T3 ... Tn

1 2 3 ... n

Maybe this is really simple but I cannot get it to work, here's what I've tried

(Matlab R2016b)

while 
%Calculations
for z=1:beds;
    temps(z)=(T); 
end
%Misc code
beds=beds+1;  
end

returns 126 of the same T value as Tn

this code just run each temps off as the same value in a 1x126 double and this is not intended.

You're missing indexing for your T

while 
%Calculations
for z=1:beds;
    temps(z)=T(z); 
end
%Misc code
beds=beds+1;  
end

however.. it looks like youre just setting temps to be equal to T-- do you even need the forloop?

Solution I found:

beds = 1; %% ORIGINALLY 0 SO CODE DIDN'T WORK!!!
while %Condition
    z=beds;

    %Calculations

    temps(z)=[T]

beds=beds+1;  
end
beds = beds - 1;

NB : I don't think z=beds is required, temps(beds) should work.

'NB : I don't think z=beds is required, temps(beds) should work.'

yep, it will save you some space and time, however insignificant. Glad you caught your error.

for future reference though, do try to provide as much information as possible so it'll be easier to answer your question!
