So far, nothing special occured, as the parameter to ga () is the name (as a
normal string) of the function. Inside ga () you probably have a feval ()
function. To call a function whose name is stored in funcname, you can write
something like :

function ga (argument, funcname)

feval (funcname, argument);

endfunction


If you have a variable number of additional arguments for the subfunction,
you can try :

function ga (argument1, funcname, ...)

feval (funcname, argument, all_va_args);

endfunction


Then, ga (1, 'gronf', 2, 3) will call gronf (1, 2, 3)

Hope this helps,
Frédéric
