Hi all, Would you please advise how can I pass an array to Matlab function so that I can use each element in the array to calculate different outputs? Kind regards,

This is going to depend on whether the function in question is vectorized or not. E.g., suppose the function is vectorized:
function result = myfun(x)
result = x.^2;
end
Then you would call it like this:
x = whatever
y = myfun(x);
But suppose the function is not vectorized:
function result = myfun(x)
result = x^2; % <-- Note the use of ^ instead of .^
end
Then you would be stuck with a loop:
x = whatever
y = zeros(size(x));
for k=1:numel(x)
y(i) = myfun(x(i));
end
Or you could use the arrayfun() function (with the loop hidden in the background):
y = arrayfun(@myfun,x);
The above examples assume that the output of the function for a scalar input is also scalar. If that is not the case then different code would be needed to store the results.
