Well, I know that. I was not laughing: I just wanted to mention that
if you speak about such errors for matrices, this is also valid for
real numbers' addition.

I'm confused about your question, the mmtimes is the function I provides in post #6, and an improved version is submitted in FEX here
http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/27950-mmtimes-matrix-chain-product

The timing is carried with FEX version.

You have replied in post #7, so why the question that sounds like from someone who has not followed the thread at all?

Well, sorry, I try to follow so much threads that I sometimes forget
answers and ask silly questions.

That's not this at all; I now remember about your function. (I re-read
it, and it came back to my mind.) I'm sure you understand my
absentmindedness. The fact is that I even tested it partially when
receiving your answer. That makes the whole story even weirder for my memory.

Yeah no problem. That's happens sometime to me too when a topic is not particular of my interest or get lost inside a junk of junks.

Sarcastic and caustic remark. This topic is not the topic which I'm
the most interested in (and same for others, I think), but that does
not justify my absentmindedness.

If it's too good to be true, then it probably is.
