Given: m = [0,0,0} n = {1,2,3} how can I get a function to give: {{1,2,3,0,0,0,0,0,0}, {0,0,0,1,2,3,0,0,0}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,1,2,3}} ??? Bruno Hi, Bruno, You might do like the following, for example: Map[Flatten, Table[RotateRight[{n, m, m}, i], {i, 0, 2}]] Returning {{1, 2, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 3}} As you want, or a bit shorter: Flatten /@ (RotateRight[{n, m, m}, #] & /@ {0, 1, 2}) Returning the same.
