creating and modifying a cell array

Hello I have a cell array of data R

R =  cell 1: 4 6 8 

     cell 2: 5 9 12

     cell 3: 6 13 14

I want to create another cell array X that is the X = f( R ) which the same length

X = cell 1: X1 X2 X3

    cell 2: X4 X5 X6

    cell 3: X7 X8 X9

Next I want to subtract a vector Z [1x3] from every term in the cell array X

so Y would look like this

Y = cell 1: X1-Z1, X2-Z1, X3-Z1

    cell 2: X4-Z2, X5-Z2, X6-Z2

    cell 3: X7-Z3, X8-Z3, X9-Z3

Thanks!

Use cellfun

X=cellfun(@sin,R)

what if instead of sin, i want to run through a function I created? which isn't a standard matlab function.

[Azzi Abdelmalek]

X=cellfun(@yourfun,R)

Its not working, say R are indices and X is the value of the function at those indices, when i try to use the function is saying

co2i" was previously used as a variable, conflicting with its use here as the name of a function or command.
