How to convert a cell array containing various non-linear equations to an inline function ?

I am storing multiple equations in a cell array with unknown variables. I want to convert the elements (equations) in this cell array to inline functions in order to evaluate them at a set of points

Can you give a small example of what you mean by " ... multiple equations in a cell array with unknown variables".

[Ahsun Ali]

F is a cell array containing two equations(as an example) f1=4*x^2-20*x+1/4*(y^2)+8 and f2=1/2*(x*y^2)+2*x-5*y+8. When i try to do F=inline(F) matlab gives an error 'Input must be a string' but i'm already taking the input as F{counter1}=input('Enter the equation:','s'); i'm taking in eq's in a loop so I have linked the location of array storage to the value of counter

I want to find the value of should be function array F at a specific value of 'x' and 'y' (in this case). If there were more eq's then the variables would be more as well equal to the number of eq's that is

Function handles is a better way to implement equations.
