Matlab identity shift matrix

Question

Is there any inline command to generate shifted identity matrix in MATLAB?

A=[ ...
0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0
0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0
0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0         


        

Answer 1

Here is another one (also works with negative shifts)

rot90(blkdiag(zeros(abs(shift)),rot90(eye(n))),sign(shift))
