How to create a summation looping through one matrix while keeping another one constant?

Hi,
I have a function "Func" that takes 2 inputs, 1 from each a different matrix (A and B). The matrices have same number of rows, but different number of columns.
My output matrix, C, takes the summation of Func’s output. For the entire row of matrix B, we will keep A constant. We will only go onto the next value of A when the B row is done. Additionally, we keep the rows the same such that only row 1 matrix B values will be used with row 1 A values. Row 2 matrix B with row 2 matrix A. etc. Here’s the demo code showing what I need it to do:
A = [1, 2, 3, 4;
5, 6, 7, 8;
9, 10, 11, 12];

B = [13, 14;
15, 16;
17, 18];

% Notes:
% Input A is a 3×4 matrix
% Input B is a 3×2 matrix
% Output C is going to be same dimensions as A, 3×4
% Function "Func" takes in inputs from A and B. syntax =
% Func(input from A, input from B)

% Example of how this is supposed to look:
% C(1,1) = Func(1,13) + Func(1,14)
% Above meaning the 1,1 entry of C matrix is the summation of the output of function "Func" where the inputs is A(1,1) and B(1,1) and B(1,2)
% C(1,2) = Func(2,13) + Func(2,14)
% C(1,3) = Func(3,13) + Func(3,14)
….
% C(2,1) = Func(5,15) + Func(5,16)
% Now that we are in the 2nd row, the "Func" function uses inputs A(2,1) and B(2,1) and B(2,2)
% C(2,2) = Func(6,15) + Func(6,16)
….
% C(3,1) = Func(9,17) + Func(9,18)
….
% C(3,4) = Func(12,17) + Func(12,18)
I know how to do this brute force, but I am struggling with how to approach this problem:
How many for loops do I need? (I currently have 2)
How do I get the loop to calculate the summation? Right now, my loop is only calculating the instaneous value, not summing.
Thanks!Hi,
