Any help is appreciated

There's rather a lot to unpack for such a short program, so I've put my comments in the attached worksheet.  Don't worry, Mathcad's differences from most programming languages mean that things such as array indexing and implicit multiplication cause confusion initially, but people soon get used to it.

Thank you for the quick suggestion and detailed explanation 

I was looking for output as below 

Is it possible to have it in Mathcad?

Almost.  There are several ways to create the array of values, but I don't think you can display the numbers like that (right justified, trailing zeros except for zero itself) without using a component (eg, Excel).

As for the values, not sure if the programs work because I only have Mathcad Express, but ..

And here's one with a larger set of values

There are other ways, using matrix operations or user-defined functions to, say, replicate a vector.
