Hi, what expression is calculated by the following command in Matlab?
Code:
fminbnd(@(x) (sin(x).^2-1),0,pi)
Minimum of:
(a) f(x)=1-sin x^2 or (b)1-sin^2x.
I answered a) in my exercise, however I am not sure if this is correct. Can someone tell me if this is correct?

Sounds like homework.
The documentation should be helpful to understand what that function is doing,

Thank you for your help. I have answered a) in my exam, it would be nice if you can say if it's right or not. Because also with the link that you have mentioned i am not sure if my answer was right or not :/

Hint:
[x,fval] = fminbnd(___)
gives you the (x,y) values at the minimum.
You could plug the x values into both of your options and the one that returns the matching y value is the correct function.

Ok, for x i get 4.5994e-05 and for fval =-1.0000
I put x into a) f(x)=1-sin4.5994e-05^2=1
I put x into b) f(x)=1-sin^2 *4.5994e-05=1
I get for same 1. But I think this cant't be right...

Could you share the 2 lines of code where you tested the two versions? There's probably an error in how you're setting the equations.
