E.g., if you want only a subset of your vector:
k = number of values you want; % Must be <= numel(a)
p = randperm(numel(a),k);
b = a(p);
If you want a sample that could include repeats, e.g.,
k = number of values you want;
p = randi(numel(a),1,k);
b = a(p);

OK -- you didn't say anything about "s" or a 2D matrix, but I think you should mark it "Accepted" anyway, to give James reputation points.
