Usage

bsxfun(func, x, y)
  arrayfun(func, ...)

Arguments

func

function with two or more input parameters.

x, y

two vectors, matrices, or arrays of the same size.

...

list of arrays of the same size.

Value

• The result will be a vector or matrix of the same size as x, y.

Examples

X <- matrix(rep(1:10, each = 10), 10, 10)
Y <- t(X)
bsxfun("*", X, Y)  # multiplication table

f <- function(x, y) x[1] * y[1]     # function not vectorized
A <- matrix(c(2, 3, 5, 7), 2, 2)
B <- matrix(c(11, 13, 17, 19), 2, 2)
arrayfun(f, A, B)
