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}}

???

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.

Have fun, Alexei
