Matrix problem n*n

Hii, I was trying to solve this simple problem. I have to create a matrix with first n.^2 elements: example for n=3 the matrix would be

1 2 3

4 5 6

7 8 9

I have used this strategy :

n=input('order of square matrix is? ')
for i=1:n^2;
    A(i)=input('numer of elements:'); 
end
A=reshape(A,n,n)'

at this point I don't wanna enter the number of elements manually but I need the matrix to be created as soon as I enter the order of matrix. How can I do that?

n = 3;
A = reshape(1:n^2,n,n).'

A = 3×3

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Thank you for your answer but the n=3 was just an example, the idea was putting a general n number and create a matrix from 1 to n.^2 elements, that is why I put an input at the beginning just because you choose the size of a quadrate matrix and then it displays you all elements from 1 to n.^2. Maybe I'm completley wrong about my code, I'm just searching the right idea.

Then replace

n = 3

by

n = input('order of square matrix is? ')
