Converting a 10x10 matrix to a 100x1 vector

Currently, I have a 10x10 matrix displaying the geometry for a figure. I need to turn that 10x10 into a 100x1 vector for use in solving a linear equation. The order I need for this 100x1 is that the first row of the 10x10 would be 1-10 on the 100x1 vector, second row would be 11-20 etc. How can I do this in MATLAB? I feel like it should be a simple code, but I'm struggling with putting it together. Any help would be appreciated.

If A is your matrix

B=A';
out=B(:)

%or

out=reshape(A',[],1)

that answer seems to be close, but it seems to shift my matrix up 1 and over one. Here is the code I have currently:

qdot = zeros(n);
for j=1:n
  for k=1:n
      if j>(0.3*n) && j<(0.8*n)
          if k>(0.2*n) && k<=(0.6*n)
              qdot(j,k) = 10000;
          end
      else
          qdot(j,k) = 0;
      end
  end
end

which produces an nxn array

what I need to do is that that nxn array specifically and turn it into an n^2x1. The previous comment was really close, but it put the values in the wrong location

The answer do what you've asked

[Azzi Abdelmalek]

Unless you are confusing rows and columns, in this case

out=A(:)
