Can someone help? I'm trying to learn how to use cellfun and I don't understand it completely.

Here's one way you can use cellfun to solve this problem. I made an anonymous function called isDraw.

isDraw = @(letter) letter=='D'
d = cellfun(isDraw,games)
draws = sum(d)

Test	Status	Code Input and Output
1	Fail	games = {'D','D','A','H','D','H'}; draws = 3; assert(isequal(how_many_draws(games),draws)) Error in solution: Line: 4 Column: 18 Invalid expression. When calling a function or indexing a variable, use parentheses. Otherwise, check for mismatched delimiters.
2	Fail	games = {'D','D'}; draws = 2; assert(isequal(how_many_draws(games),draws)) Error in solution: Line: 4 Column: 18 Invalid expression. When calling a function or indexing a variable, use parentheses. Otherwise, check for mismatched delimiters.
3	Fail	games = {'H','H','A'}; draws = 0; assert(isequal(how_many_draws(games),draws)) Error in solution: Line: 4 Column: 18 Invalid expression. When calling a function or indexing a variable, use parentheses. Otherwise, check for mismatched delimiters.
4	Fail	games = {'D','H','H','A','D','H','H','A','D','H','H','A','D','D'}; draws = 5; assert(isequal(how_many_draws(games),draws)) Error in solution: Line: 4 Column: 18 Invalid expression. When calling a function or indexing a variable, use parentheses. Otherwise, check for mismatched delimiters.
