Nice, Important thing is to get the size right!

Andrew Newell on 6 Jun 2013

The question says 'regardless of input', which I take to mean that more than one input is allowed. I think this should be added to the list of tests:
U = cell(1); R = struct; wiferight(@who,'do you think',U,R,'God?')

Is this a trick question?

I have a doubtt when I try to write this code using anonymous function i.e., wiferight=@(in)'out' and cecked the output in MATLAB 2007b version it gave me the correct answer why is it giving a wrong answer I am unable to understand it.

Sneha, do you really want to tell your wife to get 'out'?
