Hello,
I have script calls functions like this:
func1('A1',[1],'min',0,'max',1)
func1('A2',[1],'min',0,'max',100)
...
func2('B1',[1],'min',0,'max',1)
func2('B2',[1],'min',0,'max',1)
...
I want to gather all these inputs into a list. How can I get the functions inputs as a cell array? I do not want to use regular expression, because the real situation is much more complex.
Thanks

Hi,
This is to my understanding that you want to get function inputs as a cell array instead of mentioning each arguments specifically inside function definition as below.
func1('A1',[1],'min',0,'max',1)
func1('A2',[1],'min',0,'max',100)
...
func2('B1',[1],'min',0,'max',1)
func2('B2',[1],'min',0,'max',1)
...
Following can be used arguments as varargin that accepts a variable number of inputs as shown.[PP1]
Func1(varargin)
Func1(varargin)
….
Func2(varargin)
Func2(varargin)
…..
Following can be used to declare a global cell array and add them into a global cell array by running a for loop through varargin inside every function.
Func1(varargin)
Global cell_array
For k = 1:numel(varagin)
Cell_array = [cell_array,varargin[k]]

Thanks for the answer but sorry your understanding is not correct. The part:
func1('A1',[1],'min',0,'max',1)
func1('A2',[1],'min',0,'max',100)
...
func2('B1',[1],'min',0,'max',1)
func2('B2',[1],'min',0,'max',1)
...
are written in a script. I do not want to call the functions, but just read the text of this script and make a cell:
cell1={'A1',[1],'min',0,'max','1';
'A2',[1],'min',0,'max','100';
...}
cell2={'B1',[1],'min',0,'max','1';
'B2',[1],'min',0,'max',1;
...}
I do not want to use regular expression, because there are also comment and other stuff in the script. And user can also write : func2('B2', [1], 'min',0,'max',1) or some other situation.
