creating zero matrices all together!

Hi people!

I want to create a bunch of zero matrices of size with no distinct regularities 3*3 5*5 9*9 and 50*50 for example. Is there any way I can

1. make them conveniently using for loop or something and
2. name them using the size index

instead of

m3=zeros(3,3)
m5=zeros(5,5)
m9=zeros(9,9)
m50=zeros(50,50)

I used to do it with SAS but wonder if matlab can do it too.

Lots of thanks!!!

You can make a cell array, where each cell contains a different sized array:

desiredSizes = [3 5 9 50];
for k = 1 : length(desiredSizes);
  arrays{k} = zeros(desiredSizes(k));
end
