Creating a list of matrices [duplicate]

Question

I am new to programming and I was wondering if my question has a simple implementation. I have a bunch of matrices and I want a way to be able to store them, or be able to easily call them and do operations on them. For example, if I have 100 matrices, called, M1,M2,...M100; is there a way I can rename them so that if I want to call the nth matrix, I can just write M(nth)?

EDIT: For example, if I want to add M1+M1, M1+M2, ...,M1+M100; I want to be able to write a loop something kind of like,

for i=1:100 AM(i)=M(1)+M(i) end

Is this possible?

Answer 1

Use cell array

AM = cell(1,100);

and set it as

AM{i} = Mi;

then you can access it as

AM{i};

note the use of {} to access each element of the cell array AM, that is in turn a matrix
