Adding elements from 2 separate vector sources

[myhouse]

Hello all,
I would like to know how to add the elements in vector vec1 to the elements in vec2. For instance: vec1(0) = [2,4,6] and vec2(0) = [1,3,5]. I need to extract the 2 and the 1 and add them together, then the 4 and the 3 and so on. Someone advised me to use a vector of vectors and that was cool but I'm still trying to figure that one out too. Thanks in advance for to anyone for any comments suggestions or code. I super appreciate it.

I would suggest looking at using parallel vectors, the value in the first vector cooresponds to a value in the second vector in the same spot. So you would just have to access one element technically (big hint!).
A Vector of Vectors wouldn't be very useful since you still have more processing to do, if you had a large amount of vectors then it could be useful for that process.

I was looking more along the lines of some code. I have tried many things that haven't worked. I need to know how to extract elements from a vector of vectors and then to add 2 elements from each vector together and to put the sums into a third vector in matrix form.
