Hello
can i creat a Multidimensional Arrays of matrix of different size, like this :
mulat(:,:,1)=[1 3;3 5;5 6]
mulat(:,:,2)=[1 3;3 5;5 6;2 3]
??? Subscripted assignment dimension mismatch.% code

Not like that. The best solution will depend on your goal. One option is to store the arrays in a cell array.
mulat={[1 3;3 5;5 6]}
mulat{2}=[1 3;3 5;5 6;2 3]

Numerical arrays contain numerical scalars as elements. Therefore it is impossible to store a different number of elements in different slices of the same dimensions. This is simply the definition of a numerical array.
Using the curly braces { and } you create a cell array . These arrays can contain variables of any type and dimensions as elements. Please read the documentation: doc cell
