MATRICES / VECTORS
ones(3,4)			generate 3x4 matrix filled with ones
zeros(3,4)			generate 3x4 matrix filled with zeros
eye(N)			generates a NxN identity matrix (Einheitsmartix)
m = [1,2 ; 3,4]		generates matrix m =	[1 2]
                    [3 4]

m[1,2]	get value of 1st row, 2nd column of matrix m
m[2,:]			generates a vector with values of 2nd row 
v = 1:5			generate vector v = [1 2 3 4 5]

numel(x)	counts number of elements in x (works for vectors & matrix)
