Krish - you could consider using a cell array to represent the characters in your board. For example,
 n = 12;
 board = cell(n+1,n+1);
 % initialize the board
 for u=1:n+1
     for v=1:n+1
         if u==1
             if v<=n
                 board{u,v+1} = v;
                 board{v+1,u} = v;
             end
         elseif v==1
             % do nothing
         else
             board{u,v} = 'x';
         end
     end
 end
would create a board similar to what you are requesting. I noticed that you tagged your question with "GUI". Were you hoping to create some sort of GUI with the above board embedded in it?
