Octave inline command

In this tutorial, we will learn about the Octave inline command. Using the inline command, we can define a mathematical function in Octave. Note that this function is obsolete now, we can consider using anonymous functions. We will get the following error using the function.

warning: inline is obsolete; use anonymous functions i
instead

Syntax

>> inline (STR)
>> inline (STR, ARG1, …)

Examples

Let’s define a simple function using the inline command.

f(x) = 4x^2 – 5

>> % Define a function f(x) = 4*x^2 -5
>> f = inline(‘4*x^2 – 5′,’x’)
warning: inline is obsolete; use anonymous functions i
nstead
f =

<class inline>

>> f(3)
ans = 31
>>

 

We will discuss anonymous functions in the upcoming Octave tutorials.
