How can I create a piecewise inline function in MATLAB?

Question

I have a function in MATLAB which takes another function as an argument. I would like to somehow define a piecewise inline function that can be passed in. Is this somehow po

Unfortunately, MATLAB doesn't have a ternary operator which would make this sort of thing easier, but to expand slightly on gnovice's approach, you could create an anonymous function like so:

fh = @(x) ( 2 .* ( x <= 0.5 ) - 1 )

In general, anonymous functions are more powerful than inline function objects, and allow you to create closures etc.
