How can I join two vectors?

I have two column vectors (nx1), and I need to concatenate them together end to end, to end up with another column vector that will be, let's say, (2n,1) size. I tried to use "cat" function like this:

cat(2,a,b)

Where "a" and "b" are column vectors, but it doesn't work as I was expecting, the same way it works when "a" and "b" are arrays: a=[1 2 3] and b=[4 5 6] for example. Is there a way to accomplish that?

It seems that you just got the dimension wrong. Down the column is dimension 1:

a = [2; 3; 5]; % col vector
b = [7; 11; 13]; % another col vector

c = cat(1,a,b) % concatenate vertically

c = 6×1

2 3 5 7 11 13

d = [a; b] % Another way to concatenate vertically

d = 6×1

2 3 5 7 11 13

Yes, that works too, thank you!

I figured out that by using "vertcat" function I get the results wanted to. I'm not deleting the question in case it's another person's doubt too, this is what I did:

a = zeros(3,1)
b = ones(3,1)
c = vertcat(a,b)
%the result is c = (0,0,0,1,1,1) in one column
