For loop in function handle
显示 更早的评论
I want to creat a function with multiple variables, something like:
f = @(x) = f1(x) + f2(x) + ... + fn(x)
where x is a n-dimensional vector which can be define by user. The number of functions f1,f2,..,fn can be define by user, too.
The question is can i use a for loop in function handle to define f according to the length of vector x?

You can simply store function handles in a cell array of any size and use cellfun. No loop required.
>> C = {@sin,@sqrt,@pow2};
>> F = @(x) sum(cellfun(@(f)f(x),C));
>> F(3)
ans = 9.8732
compare with:
>> sin(3) + sqrt(3) + pow2(3)
ans = 9.8732
If you really want to use a for loop then you would need to write the function in an Mfile, e.g.:
function out = myfun(x)
out = 0;
C = {@sin,@sqrt,@pow2};
for k = 1:numel(C)
out = out + C{k}(x);
end
end

"But my situation is a bit more complicated. The functions f1,f2,...,fn are not familier functions like sin,cos,pow2,... They are anonymous functions"
That makes no difference, you can also use a cell array with anonymous functions:
C{1} = @(x)...;
C{2} = @(x)...;
... etc
and then use either the loop or cellfun (you might need to set its optional 'UniformOutput' to false),

I think i got your point. But im not trying to create dynamical variable names. I want to create a function to calculate channel capacity acording to Shannon formular:
where p_n are variables. How can i define function C with unknown number of variables (i call it as N), others parameters are generate corresponding to N.

You said it yourself, you have an unknown number of variables. The only way to address an indefinite number of variables is to dynamically create the names of the variables and access the contents of the variables through the names you created. Which we firmly advise you not to do.
where p_n are variables.
Don't do that. Instead make p and h into vectors. Then
dot(p, h) - p(n).*h(n)
provided that p(m) and h(m) are finite.

"How can i define function C with unknown number of variables (i call it as N), others parameters are generate corresponding to N."
Rather than creating lots of variables the simple and efficient MATLAB way is to use one vector/matrix/array.
Your approach is making this much more complex than it needs to be.

NO. Anonymous functions cannot use for .
Anonymous functions can use arrayfun() and cellfun() and can use function calls that process the resulting arrays.
