MATLAB: Is it possible to assign multiple variables to one number

assigncleanvariables

For example, is there a much more efficient way of doing this:
a = 0;
b = 0;
c = 0;
And so on; essentially, I am trying to set a-z equal to 0. I am just trying to make my script seem less long. Thank you for the help.

If you really have 26 variables with a single charater name 'a' to 'z' which are all scalars, use one vector:
a = zeros(1, 26);
and a(2) instead of b.
