Adding cell array entries

Suppose you have a 162*24 cell array called CC and each cell array entry consist of a matrix.

How would you add CC{1,1}+CC{2,1}+CC {3,1}.....CC{162,1}

and then to the same for the remaining 23 columns.

I dont need the sum but all matrices within each cell entry have to be added.

Thanks

nd = ndims(CC{1,1});
sol = sum(cat(ndims+1, CC{:,1}),ndims+1);

There are also approaches using the more obscure fold() operation.

Thanks but I dont need the sum. All I need is that the matrices in each cell entry to be added. All matrices have the same dimensions.

This answer does what you asked for.

I get an error Not enough input arguments and and also an unspecific error in the second line. Maybe the nd variable is missing in the second line?

[madhan ravi]

nd = ndims(CC{1,1});
sol = sum(cat(nd+1, CC{:,1}),nd+1);

for i=1:24
sol=sum((CC(:,i)))
end

No, not for a cell array. sum() does not apply to cell arrays.

Also, you are overwriting all of sol each iteration.
