Method one: indexing:
M = zeros(50,100);
M(1:51:50^2) = V % vector V must have 50 elements
A simple example:
>> M = zeros(5,10);
>> M(1:6:25) = 1:5
M =
1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 4 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 5 0 0 0 0 0
Method two: diag:
[diag(V),zeros(50)] % vector V has 50 elements
and an example:
>> [diag(1:5),zeros(5)]
ans =
1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 4 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 5 0 0 0 0 0
