FEVAL Evaluate a Function

Usage

The feval function executes a function using its name. The syntax of feval is

  [y1,y2,...,yn] = feval(fname,x1,x2,...,xm)

where fname is the name of the function to evaluate, and xi are the arguments to the function, and yi are the return values.

Example

Here is an example of using feval to call the cos function indirectly.

--> feval('cos',pi/4)
ans = 
  <double>  - size: [1 1]
