Using a string to pass input argument to a function

Hi,

I have to use the function ndgrid different times, each time with a different number of input and output arguments.

I would like to make all automatic, so i tried to concatenate in a string what i have to pass as argument both in output and input but it doesn't work.

Here is the code I used.

[output]=ndgrid(=input);

where

input is {'[table{1,1}(1,2) table{1,1}(1,3)], [table{1,1}(2,2) table{1,1}(2,3)], [table{1,2}(1,2) table{1,2}(1,3)]'}

and

output is {'p11, p12, p21'}

any ideas of how I can make it works?

C = {1:3,4:6,7:9}

C = 1x3 cell array
    {1×3 double}    {1×3 double}    {1×3 double}

[C{:}] = ndgrid(C{:})

C = 1x3 cell array
    {3×3×3 double}    {3×3×3 double}    {3×3×3 double}

Use comma-separated lists (CSL). The "How to Use the Comma-Separated Lists" section on that page shows both how to use CSL to pass inputs into a function and how to accept outputs returned from a function.
