Error: Unable to perform assignment because the left and right sides have a different number of elements.

I am unable to get this for loop working for some reason, I know it is in line 28 but not sure. Thanks for any help.

You are using a double for loop. I advise its best to use something like this

for ii=1:24
    for jj=1:24
        z(ii,jj)=normrnd(mu_SC(ii),std_SC(jj),1000);
    end
end

this solution threw a "unable to perform assignment because the indices on the left side are not compatible with the size of the right side."

Hello, from your question i think you are tring to generate a 1000x1000 array of normal random numbers, then in that case you can use cell notation, with curly brackets to the output as below:

for ii=1:24
    for jj=1:24
        z{ii,jj}=normrnd(mu_SC(ii),std_SC(jj),1000);
    end
end

With preallocation to avoid inefficiency and some errors related to unmatching classes/types/sizes:

z = cell(24,24);
for ...
end
