The quote ' is not the transpose operator, but the complex transposition. To be exact the tranpose operator is .' including the dot.

Can I know when to use tranpose operator with a dot .' and a single quote ' ?
"Can I know when to use tranpose operator with a dot .' and a single quote '"
This is very easy:
  • use the complex conjugate transpose ' when you need the complex conjugate transpose.
  • otherwise use transpose .'
If you are not doing linear algebra then most likely you should be using transpose.
Tip: rather than wasting time with transposing, just define the vector as a column in the first place:
V = [10^0.01;log(49);975;sqrt(a)]
