I need to generate just one random number in every iterations.
For i=1:10
x(i)=rand(1)
end
%For example when i=4 (x(4)), this code generate 4 random x which is not my favorite i want just another random x

Your storing each random created in each loop, if you only want one just do
x = rand (1);

I need to store them because these are the initial positions of a serie of particles. It is a part of code.

That's what you have in your original code.
At i=4 its generating the 4th random number and saving it in x(4). X(1:3) are already populated by the earlier loops.
