How do I make the user input values into a matrix?

HELLO!!!

kinda new to MATLAB, and I'm trying to figure out a way to ask the user to fill in a matrix and at the same time store something like a counter to know how many values are there in the matrix. from that, I could be able to find out if the number of values entered are odd or even, and how to absolute each value.

for example: input values: 9 -8 7 -6 5 these are odd numbers and there abs values are 9 8 7 6 5

doc input

>> x=input('Enter an array of values in []: ')
Enter an array of values in []: [1 2 3 -8 2:pi:12]
x =
  1.0000    2.0000    3.0000   -8.0000    2.0000    5.1416    8.2832   11.4248
>> n=length(x)
n =
  8
>> e=mod(x,2)==0
e =
   0     1     0     1     1     0     0     0     0     0     0     0     0

Read "Getting Started" section in documentation and work thru examples to get an overview of "how Matlab works"...
