Is a matrix same as a vector in MatLab?

[Ans]

No

[NOTE]

But I found and interesting thing.

A vector will be recognized as a vector and a matrix.

i.e.

For a vector named vec, isvector(vec) will return true and ismatrix(vec) will return true.

Look at following example(code and output).

code:

clear

clc

A=[1:3:7;1:2:5]

fprintf("A: Is it a matrix?"+ismatrix(A)+"\t"+"Is it a vector?"+isvector(A));

fprintf("\n");

vec=[1:2:8]

fprintf("vec: Is it a matrix?"+ismatrix(vec)+"\t"+"Is it a vector?"+isvector(vec));

fprintf("\n");

output:
A =

1 4 7
1 3 5

A: Is it a matrix?true Is it a vector?false

vec =

1 3 5 7

vec: Is it a matrix?true Is it a vector?true
