Function-pointer - function as argument for functions

[Christian Zobel]

Hello,

is it possible for example to call a function which depending on the
argument calculates sin(x) or x**2.

What I want to have would look like:


  function retval = fun10 ( funname() )
  
    retval = funname(10);
      
  endfunction

and I'd like to call it like this:

  fun( sin() )
  => -0.544

or

  fun( sqrt() )
  => 3,16



Christian
