Answer 1

So, do you know about fprintf()? You can simply call fprintf() 4 times to make those 4 lines.

How do I get help on homework questions on MATLAB Answers? - MATLAB Answers - MATLAB Central

Matan's comment moved from an "Answer" to here:

I know ,however i need to print it so the big base will be the number with the big value and the small base will be the number with the small value ,(both numbers are the numbers I enter in the input)

[Image Analyst]

So put fprintf() in a for loop

for k = smallNumber : bigNumber
    fprintf(.............)
end

Hint:

>> str = repmat('*', [1, 8])
str =
    '********'
