How to assign vectors to existing vector

Hi all
I want to assign a set of vectors in place of zero to existing vectors (ventor_2). But I always want to check the the new set of vectors (newvector_2) does not have the number that exist in previous vector (vector_1)
Vector_1 = [ 1 2 3 4]
Vector_2 = [ 2 0 4 0 6 7 ] Newvector_2 = [ 2 5 4 8 6 7]
How can I do that
Thank you

Without logically going to each element you can use functions like find(), intersect(), setxor() for vectorization in achieving what you need. Here is how you can do it:
vector_1 = [ 1 2 3 4];
vector_2 = [ 2 0 4 0 6 7];
% x is the vector whose elements are to be added to vector_2
x = [1 2 5 8];
xcommon = intersect(x, vector_1);
vector_3 = setxor(x,xcommon);
idxZero = find(~ vector_2);
% Truncate additional elements
vector_3(length(idxZero)+1:length(vector_3)) = [];
vector_2(idxZero) = vector_3;
For detailed information on above functions, refer the following document links:

I took "x" as an example here. In your case "x" is the vector set whose elements are to be added in place of zeros of vector_2.

newvector_2=vector_2;
ix=nnz(~vector_2);
v12=[vector_1,nonzeros(vector_2).'];
u=unique(v12);
d=setdiff(1:max(v12),v12);
newvector_2(~vector_2)=[d,max(v12)+(1:ix-numel(d))]

Let X - interval for input data in 'vector_2'
X = [0, 15];
x = setdiff(X(1):X(2),vector_1); % input data
newvector_2 = vector_2;
lo = vector_2 == 0;
n = sum(lo);
b = repmat(x,1,ceil(n/numel(x)));
newvector_2(lo) = b(randperm(numel(b),n));
