MATLAB: Can you vectorize this code

Question

This comes from the Matlab book and I'm having the hardest time understanding it.

Chapter 5, problem 35

Vectorize this code:

n = 3;
x = zeros(n);
y = x;
for i = 1:n
  x(:,i) = i;
  y(i,:) = i;
end

Please help!

Answer 1

n=3; 
x=meshgrid(1:n,1:n);
y=x';
