Hi everybody

How I can generate basis vectors for a 8x8 matrix which is known?I think that first colon of the matrix is basis and others colons are also basis for a 8x8 matrix.This is true or not .

Thanks

A basis for what vector space?
 
I don't know but question says this

"Generate basis vectors for an 8x8 DFT matrix. Plot the basis vectors. Comment on the basis vectors."
 
"Discrete Fourier Transform"?
 
yes discrete Fourier transform
