Concatenating multiple matrices

A function i'm working on involves a for loop creating a series of matrices all of which need to be stored and then summed once the for loop has finished.
My initial thought was by concatenating all the matrices i could store all the data, however, the usual cat(dim, A, B) wouldn't work as the number of concatenations changes between scenarios so i was hoping someone could help.
Essentially i need to run the for loop, which produces an output matrix for each run through the loop, and then sum all the output matrices, no matter how many there are.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Does all the data fit in memory? Are all the matrices of the same size? If that is the case
M = nan( n1, n2, number_of_matrices );
for ii = 1 : number_of_matrices
number_of_matrices( :,:, ii ) = ...
end

I think you mean M on the left hand side rather than number_of_matrices.

Store them in a cell array, say A. Then
dimno = ndim(A{1}) + 1;
sum( cat(dimno, A{:}), dimno )
Do you definitely need to access the arrays after the loop, or do you just need their sum? If you just need their sum, you could do a running total.

I just need to sum them. This is great. Thanks!
Hi Sorry but i'ts still not working out for me,
if the matrix produced at the end of the run of the for loop is A, then does :
dimno = ndim(A{1}) + 1;
sum( cat(dimno, A{:}), dimno )
need to lie outside of the for loop?
