suppose i want to create an anonymous function which subtract two inputs
An_fn = @(x,y) x-y;
It is equivilant to
function op = Not_An_fn(x,y)
op = x-y;
end
An_fn(1,2)
and
Not_An_fn(1,2)
will give you same output
str2func converts the string into anonymous function
suppose my string is 'x-y'
so i need to define the input arguments by @(x,y)
strcat is concatenating the input argument with the string 'x-y'
user_string = 'x-y';
strcat('@(x,y)',user_string)
ans =
'@(x,y) x-y'
Now if we apply str2func to convert it to anonymous function
fh = str2func(strcat('@(x,y)','x-y'))
fh =
function_handle with value:
@(x,y)x-y
