<h1><a class="anchor" id="Usage"></a>
Usage</h1>
<p>The <code>arrayfun</code> function is used to apply a function handle to each element of an input array (or arrays), and to collect the outputs into an array. The general syntax for its use is </p>
<pre class="fragment">   y = arrayfun(fun, x)
</pre><p> where <code>x</code> is an N-dimensional array. In this case, each element of the output <code>y_i</code> is defined as <code>fun(x_i)</code>. You can also supply multiple arguments to <code>arrayfun</code>, provided all of the arguments are the same size </p>
<pre class="fragment">   y = arrayfun(fun, x, z,...)
</pre><p> in which case each output <code>y_i = fun(x_i,z_i,...)</code>.</p>
<p>If the function returns multiple outputs, then <code>arrayfun</code> can be called with multiple outputs, in which case each output goes to a separate array output </p>
<pre class="fragment">   [y1,y2,...] = arrayfun(fun, x, z, ...)
</pre><p> The assumption is that the output types for each call to <code>fun</code> is the same across the inputs.</p>
<p>Finally, some hints can be provided to <code>arrayfun</code> using the syntax </p>
<pre class="fragment">   [y1,y2,...] = arrayfun(fun, x, z, ..., 'param', value, 'param', value)
</pre><p> where <code>param</code> and <code>value</code> take on the following possible values: </p>
<ul>
<li>
<code>'UniformOutput'</code> - if the <code>value</code> is <code>true</code> then each output of <code>fun</code> must be a scalar, and the outputs are concatenated into an array the same size as the input arrays. If the <code>value</code> is <code>false</code> then the outputs are encapsulated into a cell array, with each entry in the cell array containing the call to <code>fun(x_i,z_i,...)</code>.  </li>
<li>
<code>'ErrorHandler'</code> - in this case <code>value</code> is a function handle that gets called when <code>fun</code> throws an error. If <code>'ErrorHandler'</code> is not specified, then <code>arrayfun</code> allows the error to propogate (i.e., and exception is thrown).  </li>
</ul>
