Attempt to grow array along ambiguous dimension.

a = [0:80];
b = flip(a);
multA = ones(a);
multB = ones(a);
multAB = ones(a);
for i=1:80
multA(i) = (factorial(a(i)+99))/(factorial(a(i))*factorial(99));
multB(i) = (factorial(b(i)+99))/(factorial(b(i))*factorial(99));
multAB(i) = multA(i)*multB(i);
end
Error: Attempt to grow array along ambiguous dimension.
Why do I keep getting the above error? What is the ambiguous direction?

Note that your results will be not be accurate (down to ones precision), as the values you are working with (e.g. 99!) are well above flintmax. If you require a precise output then you will need to use symbolic maths or a high-precision integer class:

The way your defined your mult variables, they are 81-dimensional arrays. I think you meant:
multA = ones(size(a));
multB = ones(size(a));
multAB = ones(size(a));
