Calculating Sequence of Square Roots with MATLAB Function and Script

[jmed]

Homework Statement

Implement a MATLAB function y=radicals(v) that calculates sqrt v(1) + sqrt v(2) +sqrt v(3) +...sqrt v(n). These values are components of v.
Then I need to write a script to test function. Enter positive integer k. Generate random vector r of length k using rand function. Then calculate following sequence by calling function radicals repeatedly. sqrt r(1), sqrt r(1)+sqrt r(2), sqrt r(1)+sqrtr(2)+sqrt r(3),...
, sqrt r(1)+sqrt r(2)+sqrt r(3)...+sqrt r(k)

Save calculated values to a vector seq. Display and plot seq.
