Hi,
I tried the below code :-
>> z = rand(1,(666),10000);
>> x = repmat(z,300,1);

The code gave the below error:-

??? Maximum variable size allowed by the program is
exceeded.

Error in ==> repmat at 97
B = A(subs{:});

While this one worked,

>> ab = z(:,:,1);
>> z = rand(1,(666),100);
>> x = repmat(z,300,1);

Kindly suggest how I can overcome this.

You are trying to create a 300-by-666-by-10000 matrix of
double precision (8 byte) values. This requires
300*666*10000*8/1024^3 = 14.88 GB of memory. It ain't
gonna happen with 32-bit MATLAB. Check out the following
technical note:

Get 64-bit MATLAB and a 64-bit machine.

By the way... love the tags "matlab" and "code".

Thakns Helper,
I have realised that, just exporing how to go about doing
this .

Depending on what you are ultimately trying to achieve, you might be
able to circumvent repmat and still get useful results using bsxfun.
