MATLAB Filling an n4 x n4 Matrix with a 4 x 4 Matrix

[ziad1985]

I have a [4 X 4] matrix , and another one which is [n4 X n4] n is an integer.
my question is there a way to fill the [n4 X n4] with n times the small [4 X 4] one.
meaning if the [4 X 4] is a
what i want to do is
a a a a
a a a a
a a a a
a a a a
n is 4 , so it's [16 X 16]
any certain function to use ? or it would have to be a For Loops to use ?

I think repmat() is what you need. Type help repmat at the prompt for instructions on the use.
