function array = fmap(fun, array, varargin)
%FMAP   Evaluate a function for each element of an array.
%
%   ARRAY2 = FMAP(FUN, ARRAY1) evaluates the function FUN on all
%   elements of ARRAY.  FUN must be a string and ARRAY1 must be numeric
%   array, a character array or a cell array.
%
%   ARRAY2 = FMAP(FUN, ARRAY1, X1, X2, ...) passes extra arguments to
%   FUN.
%
%   Examples:
%
%     fmap('sqrt', [ 4 9 ])               returns  [ 2 3 ]
%
%     fmap('sqrt', { 4 9 })               returns  { 2 3 }
%
%     fmap('power', { 4 9 }, 3)           returns  { 64 729 }
%
%     fmap('all', { [ 1 1 0 ] [ 1 1 ] })  returns  { 0 1 }
