@node Lists
@section Lists
@cindex lists
@anchor{doc-list}
@deftypefn {Built-in Function} {} list (@var{a1}, @var{a2}, @dots{})
Create a new list with elements given by the arguments @var{a1},
@var{a2}, @dots{}.
@end deftypefn
@anchor{doc-nth}
@deftypefn {Built-in Function} {} nth (@var{list}, @var{n})
Return the @var{n}-th element of @var{list}.
@end deftypefn
@anchor{doc-append}
@deftypefn {Built-in Function} {} append (@var{list}, @var{a1}, @var{a2}, @dots{})
Return a new list created by appending @var{a1}, @var{a1}, @dots{}, to
@var{list}. If any of the arguments to be appended is a list, its
elements are appended individually. For example,
@example
x = list (1, 2);
y = list (3, 4);
append (x, y);
@end example
@noindent
results in the list containing the four elements @samp{(1 2 3 4)}, not
a list containing the three elements @samp{(1 2 (3 4))}.
@end deftypefn
@anchor{doc-reverse}
@deftypefn {Built-in Function} {} reverse (@var{list})
Return a new list created by reversing the elements of @var{list}.
@end deftypefn
@anchor{doc-splice}
@deftypefn {Built-in Function} {} splice (@var{list_1}, @var{offset}, @var{length}, @var{list_2})
Replace @var{length} elements of @var{list_1} beginning at
@var{offset} with the contents of @var{list_2} (if any). If
@var{length} is omitted, all elements from @var{offset} to the end of
@var{list_1} are replaced. As a special case, if @var{offset} is one
greater than the length of @var{list_1} and @var{length} is 0, splice
is equivalent to @code{append (@var{list_1}, @var{list_2})}.
@end deftypefn
@anchor{doc-islist}
@deftypefn {Built-in Function} {} islist (@var{x})
Return nonzero if @var{x} is a list.
@end deftypefn
@node Cell Arrays
@section Cell Arrays
@cindex cell arrays
@anchor{doc-cell}
@deftypefn {Built-in Function} {} cell (@var{x})
@deftypefnx {Built-in Function} {} cell (@var{n}, @var{m})
Create a new cell array object. If invoked with a single scalar
argument, @code{cell} returns a square cell array with the dimension
specified. If you supply two scalar arguments, @code{cell} takes
them to be the number of rows and columns. If given a vector with two
elements, @code{cell} uses the values of the elements as the number of
rows and columns, respectively.
@end deftypefn
@anchor{doc-cellstr}
@deftypefn {Built-in Function} {} cellstr (@var{string})
Create a new cell array object from the elements of the string
array @var{string}.
@end deftypefn
@anchor{doc-iscell}
@deftypefn {Built-in Function} {} iscell (@var{x})
Return true if @var{x} is a cell array object. Otherwise, return
false.
@end deftypefn
