improving result of FFT

Dear fellows i want to achieve good frequency resolution by adding this command in my code n = 2^nextpow2() but i dont know how to add in my code can anybody help me please.please don't change sampling frequency=36000 and bode=1000.
clc,close all,clear all
codn=100;
% fc=6e+3;
fs=36000;
bode=1000;
code=round(rand(1,codn));
code_len=round(1/bode/(1/fs))
for ii=1:codn
x((ii-1)*code_len+1:code_len*ii)=code(ii)
end
x2 = x-(1/2) % get rid of most of the dc peak
% set up time and frequency arrays
length(x)
N = length(x)
delt = 1/fs;
delf = fs/N;
tvec = (1:N)*delt;
fvec = (-N/2:N/2-1)*delf ; % shifted frequency array
figure(1)
plot(tvec,x2(1,:)+0.5)
title('orignal baseband')
xlabel('time');
ylabel('amplitude')
ylim([-1 1.5]);
y = fftshift(fft(x2/N));
z=abs(y);
figure(2)
plot(fvec,abs(y))
title('FFT')
xlabel('frequency')
ylabel('amplitude')
figure(3)
z=y;
z(abs(fvec)>=50& abs(fvec)<=150)=0
plot(fvec,abs(z))
xlabel('frequency removed from 50 to 150 HZ');
ylabel('amplitude')
figure(4)
zf=fftshift(z)*N;
zifft=ifft(zf)+0.5;
plot(tvec,abs(zifft))
ylim([-1 1.5])
title('recovered signal')
xlabel('time');
ylabel('amplitude')

You'll want to use it as the second input to the fft. This will affect your frequency vector fvec though.
n = 2^nextpow2(N);
y = fftshift(fft(x2,n)); % you can choose to normalize x2 by 1/n if you want

i have tried but my program gives an error.
Error using plot
Vectors must be the same lengths.
Error in vlc (line 32)
plot(fvec,abs(y))
i recieve this error

Yes I said that would happen because you're working with n now not N.
Dear Daniel M you have inspect correct mistake,will you please tell me which will be my new range of fvec
You can follow the second example on the document page for fft. It will demonstrate it more clearly than I will here.
Dear danieli have taken the idea from matlab example which you send me in your link and i modified it but the problem is that i can't rectify me error
