Help storing values for Ma and Cd so I can create a plot for them.

Whenever I plot (x,Cd) and (x,Ma), I get a blank screen without a line as I was expecting as if only a point is being plotted and and not all the points from all the iterations

The problem is inside the for loop.
Change this
V = sqrt((Vx(n-1))^2 + (Vy(n-1))^2); %V = velocity [ft/s]
Ma = V/c; % Ma number
to
V(n) = sqrt((Vx(n-1))^2 + (Vy(n-1))^2); %V = velocity [ft/s]
Ma(n) = V(n)/c; % Ma number
and try again to plot. Similarly check the size and values of Cd. Also when you have two plots and if you want both of them to be on the same plot. use 'hold on', otherwise the latest plot() will overwrite the previous one.
plot(x,Cd);
hold on;
plot(x,Ma);
