How to check for size of input vector

I am trying to get my code to ask a user to input a vector and then check to see if the vector is a 1 x 5 or not, and then if it is a 5 x 1 transpose it, and if its none then count chances + 1 and if they dont do it 3 times it is an error and the program terminates. can someone help?

A = [1 , 5];            % compare the size of vector entered by user is 1 X 5
B = [5 , 1];            % compare the size of vector entered by user is 5 X 1
chances = 0;                %setting flag to use in loop


while chances<3 
   % V = input('Enter a 1 X 5 vector: ');                    %getting user input and adding it two v
    s = size(V);                  %determining size of entered vector 
    
    if V(A,s)==1            % checking that size of v is 1 X 5
        fprintf('The resulting 1 X 5 vector is: \n');   % assigning message to display
        disp(V);                 %displaying v
        chances=4;             % setting termination condition for loop
    elseif (V(s,B)==1)         % checking that size of v is 5 X 1
        warning('Error: You entered a 5 X 1 vector! \n');       % errror message displaying
        V = V.';                                                % transposing vector to 1 X 5
        fprintf('The resulting 1 X 5 vector is: \n');           % assigning message to display
        disp(V);                 %displaying v
        chances=4;             % setting termination condition for loop
    else
        fprintf('Entered dimesion is wrong.\n');               
        chances = chances + 1;         %incrementing chance count
    end
end

if(chances==3)
    error('Your Chances are over.');                    % printing the error message if try is over 
end

Start by uncommenting the line with input.

Next you need to think how to compare vectors. You can do something complicated, but you can also use isequal:

if isequal(s,A)
elseif isequal(s,B)
else
end

okay, i tried that before and its not working that way, if there any error in my code above?

What are you providing as input for V and what is the exact error? (put clc at the top and copy all text)

A = [1 , 5];            % compare the size of vector entered by user is 1 X 5
B = [5 , 1];            % compare the size of vector entered by user is 5 X 1
chances = 0;                %setting flag to use in loop
while chances<3 
 V = input('Enter a 1 X 5 vector: ');                    %getting user input and adding it two v
  s = size(V);                  %determining size of entered vector  
  if A == s            % checking that size of v is 1 X 5
      fprintf('The resulting 1 X 5 vector is: \n');   % assigning message to display
      disp(V);                 %displaying v
      chances=4;             % setting termination condition for loop
  elseif (s==B)         % checking that size of v is 5 X 1
      warning('Error: You entered a 5 X 1 vector! \n');       % errror message displaying
      V = V.';                                                % transposing vector to 1 X 5
      fprintf('The resulting 1 X 5 vector is: \n');           % assigning message to display
      disp(V);                 %displaying v
      chances=4;             % setting termination condition for loop
  else
      fprintf('Entered dimesion is wrong.\n');               
      chances = chances + 1;         %incrementing chance count
  end
end
if(chances==3)
  error('Your Chances are over.');                    % printing the error message if try is over 
end
