how to compare the elements of a matrix and fill another

how to compare the elements of a matrix and fill another matrix with the elements of a vector

what I am trying to do is fill a matrix of zeros with the elements of a vector, but first I have to compare with a matrix of 1 and 0 to know what value should go
 
these vectors represent the availability and unavailability of a group of components of an electrical system, if the element of the matrix is equal to 1 it takes the value of availability, if it is zero it must take the value of unavailability
 
the code that I propose only fills the first column of the matrix of zeros with the corresponding elements of a and b, but I cannot get the other columns to be filled with the corresponding elements
 
n=5;
 a=[0.9 0.8 0.7 0.6 0.5];
 b=[ 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5];
 t=ff2n(n);
 t1=zeros(size(t));
 for i = 1:length(t)
       
    if t(i)==1
       t1(i) =a(1,1);
       
    else
       t1(i) = b(1,1);
     
    end
  
 end
disp(t1)

Expert Answer:

:
Since your t matrix is full of 0 and 1 you can take advantage of that and just do this
 
a = [0.9 0.8 0.7 0.6 0.5];
b = [0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5];
t = ff2n(n);
t1 = t.*a
t1 =
