`fp`::`fixedpt`

Returns fixed point of a function

MuPAD® notebooks will be removed in a future release. Use MATLAB® live scripts instead.

MATLAB live scripts support most MuPAD functionality, though there are some differences. For more information, see Convert MuPAD Notebooks to MATLAB Live Scripts.

Syntax

fp::fixedpt(f)

fp::fixedpt(f) returns the fixed point of the unary function f.

fp::fixedpt is implemented as the Y combinator which is defined as follows:

where the function g is defined as

A function computing the Fibonacci numbers is created as a fixed point:

fb2 := (f,n) -> if n <= 2 then 1 else f(n-1) + f(n-2) end:
fib := fp::fixedpt(fp::curry(fb2)):
fib(i) $ i=1..9

`f`	Unary function

Unary function.
