First one is transpose of matrix A.
I don't see any difference between A' and A.' since I keep getting same thing

I believe this screenshot can answer your question.
A’ will do the complex conjugate of the value additionally;
While A.' will only be the transpose.

>> A = 1+2i
A =
1 + 2i
>> A'
ans =
1 - 2i
>> A.'
ans =
1 + 2i
Notice that A' gave the complex conjugate of the value as well as doing the transpose.

Try it with a complex matrix, and you'll see.
And you can read about the difference in the documentation of transpose and ctranspose.
