Reshaping Matrices

??? Error using ==> horzcat
CAT arguments dimensions are not consistent.

Error in ==> Energy_Yield_Model at 210
        X(j,:)=[X(1:j-1,:) X(j+1:end,:)];
 
>> size(X(1:j-1,:))

ans =
          1 1480

>> size(X(j+1:end,:))

ans =
         715 1480

I'm trying to loop through for each j that falls under an if statement and if it does, remove a row from my matrix at that point. What am I doing wrong or not understanding here? my columns are the same size and the dimensions are the same so shouldn't this work? I am only changing in the j or rows direction.

Compare:

x1 = [1 2];
x2 = [3 4; 5 6; 7 8];
x3 = [x1, x2] % DOES NOT work
x4 = [x1; x2] % DOES work

Read the Description sections (they're short, only a few sentences each) of
the documentation pages for HORZCAT and VERTCAT to learn about the
differences between the lines starting with x3 and x4 above.
