If MC is not initialized as an hypermatrix before the first assignment 
for i=1,  the first use MC(j,1,1),MC(j,3,1) initializes it as a common 
2D matrix (with Scilab 5), since dimensions>2 that are singletons are 
ignored (this is no longer the case in Scilab 6, since a very recent 
modification). Then, next assignments with i>1 try to cast MC into an 
hypermat. I don't think that Scilab 5 can do that in this way.
Scilab 6 should do it, since hypermatrices are no longer encoded as 
mlists but are natively encoded as matrices are.

So: with SCilab 5, just initialize MC as an hypermat with the right 
final sizes before using it, and your code should work.
Or you may start to use Scilab 6.
