In my matlab m-file I am using some logic (string concat) to build variables like this:
c = 'CalcPrediction(1,10)'
That means I have a string that is a function and some parameters. How can I do that function call?
Trying run(c) results in:
>> run(c)
??? Error using ==> run at 71
CalcPrediction(1,10) not found.
Note: run(c) works fine if there is no parameters. E.g. c='CalcPrediction'; run(c);
The command you are looking for is eval() instead of run()
Without actually seeing the script it's hard to generalize, but...
Where squareRoot is an m-file containing only :y=sqrt(x)
Then executing :
x=[2,0];
c='squareRoot';
run(c);
gives :
y =
1.4142 0
This example is to say you can define the script to use a declared variable (x in this case) and then declare the variable before running the script.
Without the script I don't know what you're doing with the parameters. If this doesn't answer your question, post your script.
You want to use str2func. This function takes a string and returns a function handler that can be called with your parameters. Check out the examples on the linked page.
fh = str2func('CalcPrediction')
fh(1, 10)
