addition question

Hi,

I know this is really simple but I am just starting on Matlab so am
new to this whole scene...basically I have two separate columns
containing various values (e.g. 0.0133, 0.0134 etc.)and I want to get
the sum of each column. one of the columns is called V and the other
is called H. I thought that i should type 'disp(V+H) into the command
window but this doesn't seem to work...however if i just type in
disp(V) it manages to display all the values for the v column and
likewise with the H column.

I know this is really basic but i need to find out for an assignment
in college.

Thanks.
