distfunction = {@(x)min(x), @(x)max(x)}

note that there is no space between the arguments as

distfunction = {@(x) min(x), @(x) max(x)}

will be treated as

distfunction = {@(x), min(x), @(x), max(x)}

by the parser, which of course is stupid.. You can protect the arguments 
like

distfunction = {(@(x) min(x)), (@(x) max(x))}

permitting the spaces for readability
