Why zero values in matrix

%hello, here eventhough matrix components are not zero, I am getting zero values when I put A a very large number. %Is there any way to avoid such?
E = 1;
I_z = 1;
%E_Iz = E*I_z;
R = 1;
L = R; %R
%A = 1;
A = 10^9; %so that axial strain is very small
% K1 = A*E/L;
% K2 = 12*E*I_z/L^3;
% K3= 6*E*I_z/L^2;
% K4 = 4*E*I_z/L;
% K5 = 2*E*I_z/L;
% for element 1
Ke_1_local = [A*E/L 0 0 -A*E/L 0 0;
0 12*E*I_z/L^3 6*E*I_z/L^2 0 -12*E*I_z/L^3 6*E*I_z/L^2;
0 6*E*I_z/L^2 4*E*I_z/L 0 -6*E*I_z/L^2 2*E*I_z/L;
-A*E/L 0 0 A*E/L 0 0;
0 -12*E*I_z/L^3 -6*E*I_z/L^2 0 12*E*I_z/L^3 -6*E*I_z/L^2;
0 6*E*I_z/L^2 2*E*I_z/L 0 -6*E*I_z/L^2 4*E*I_z/L ]
Ke_1_local = 6×6
1.0e+09 * 1.0000 0 0 -1.0000 0 0 0 0.0000 0.0000 0 -0.0000 0.0000 0 0.0000 0.0000 0 -0.0000 0.0000 -1.0000 0 0 1.0000 0 0 0 -0.0000 -0.0000 0 0.0000 -0.0000 0 0.0000 0.0000 0 -0.0000 0.0000

you overlooked the 1.0e+09 * at the top of the display. Those 0.0000 are not true zeros, they are 1.0e+09 * a number that is 0.0000 to four decimal places.
I suggest that you give the command
format long g
and then ask to display the matrix

I mean for example value at 2, 2 is zero right, which should not be zero as per my input
I see, I tried it and it worked, thanks for your help!
"I mean for example value at 2, 2 is zero right..."
No, it is not. If the value is exactly zero then MATLAB displays it as "0". The trailing zero digits of "0.0000" tell us that value is not exactly zero, but that the trailing digits are zero when displayed with four digits after the decimal point.
