Matlab Assignment

Assign the points P=(4,3,0) and Q=(6,1,2) and the vector  L = 5i + 8j - 1k.

Find the distance between Q and the line containing P with direction vector L, and assign it to 'q'.

Here's the code I used, but it's wrong. Can I get some help?

P=[4,3,0]
Q=[6,1,2]
n=[5,8,-1]
project = (dot(Q-P,n)/norm(n)^2)*n
q=norm(Q-project)
