Store 2 inputs in 2 arrays

The 'coordX' input is stored in an array but how do I get the 'coordY' input to be stored in a second array?

Thanks in advance for any help.

data=[];

totalX=0;

totalY=0;

numberOfCoordinates=input('Please input the number of coordinates:');

data=zeros(1,numberOfCoordinates);

for i=1:1:numberOfCoordinates

coordX(i)=input('Please enter the X co-ordinate:' )

for i=1:1:coordX

coordY (i)=input ('Please enter the Y co-ordinate:')

data=[];
totalX=0;
totalY=0;
numberOfCoordinates=input('Please input the number of coordinates:');
    data=zeros(1,numberOfCoordinates);
        for i=1:numberOfCoordinates
            coordX(i)=input('Please enter the X co-ordinate of a corner of the field:' )
        end
        for i=1:max(size(coordX))
             coordY (i)=input ('Please enter the Y co-ordinate of a corner of the field:')
        end

I've tried using your code but I'm finding when I use it with the other code I need to include, it repeats requests for coordinates. For example if I say there are 3 coordinates it should ask for 6 inputs but instead it asks for 9. See the updated code is below, thanks.

data=[];

totalX=0;

totalY=0;

numberOfCoordinates=input('Please input the number of coordinates:');

data=zeros(1,numberOfCoordinates);

if numberOfCoordinates<3

disp(['Less than 3 coordinates have been entered']);

else

for i=1:numberOfCoordinates

coordX(i)=input('Please enter the X co-ordinate of a corner of the field:' )

for i=1:max(size(coordX))

coordY (i)=input ('Please enter the Y co-ordinate of a corner of the field:')

end

end

end
