How to add power of x from 0 to n-1

I have a function vandermonde
function c = vandermonde(x, y)
V = [x.^0 x x.^2 x.^3]
c = V \ y;
end
it works good if I give a vector x with 4 components. But how could I make it general, even if I give a vector x with 5,6 or even 15 components? so that V = [x.^0 x x.^2 x.^3 x.^4 x.^5 .... x.^14] ? with n or something like that?

V=bsxfun(@power,x(:),0:n-1)

Of course, I hope you are not using this as a substitute for POLYFIT.
thank you for your answer! It works! but we are not allowed to use bsxfun and @power. It is a homework, and we are beginners with matlab. it should be something really simple with the basics of MATLAB. Is there any other solution with "basic" commands?
Yes, perhaps. But it is your homework...

here is the answer that I searched for:
function c = vmonde(x, y)
n = length(x);
V = ones(n);
for j = 2:n
V(:,j) = x.*V(:,j-1);
end
c = V \ y;
disp(V)
end

I wonder if your teacher would also have accepted this
V=exp(log(x(:))*(0:n-1))
