There may be subtleties here I am missing, but
I would initialise
sum <- first_matrix
and then loop over the other matrices
sum <- sum + next_matrix
This is pseudocode.
Otherwise I can't tell what's troubling you about
this. As the details will depend on whether
you are using Stata or Mata, your naming structure,
what else you are doing with these matrices,
whether the number is predictable in advance, etc.,
none of which is indicated, I'll leave it there.
