[Matlab]Copy Lower Triangle of symmetric matrix to Upper Triangle(or visa versa)

[iqjump123]

Hello all!
I just had a question about combining elements of matrices.
In the MATLAB documentation, there was a function called triu and tril that extracts the upper and lower components of a matrix, respectively. I was wondering if there was a way to copy the elements of the upper triangle to the lower triangle portion of the symmetric matrix (or visa versa)?

EG-

haha =
1 0 0
1 1 0
1 0 1 ->

function (copy lower half to upper half)(haha)

1 1 1
1 1 0
1 0 1

any help will be appreciated. thanks!

UPDATE- I found an article from a website that wrote the method below, but I can't entirely understand it, and moreover, don't know how I can apply this for the lower matrix, copying to the upper half. I was hoping to be able to understand the code to be able to convert, but I can't understand the code.. and testing the code gives me a mupadmex error.

here it is:
[ i j ] = find(tril(ones(m), 1)); %Trick to get indices.
D = zeros(m, m); %Initialise output matrix.
D( i + m*(j-1) )= sqrt(sum(abs( kmat(i,:) - kmat(j,:) ).^2, 2));
D( j + m*(i-1) )= D( i + m*(j-1) );

Some else to add to this question.
When I actually try to go through the operation to build the first half triangle of the matrix (in order to copy it to the upper half), it gives me a CAT error, saying that a matrix cannot contain components that are empty. Is there a way to build a half-matrix so I can go through this entire operation without having to manually pad the other half of the matrix with zeros?

Thanks!
