multiple CASE statements on interval within nested functions

Question

Although I have come up with a work-around using multiple if / else if statements, I am curious in knowing what looks wrong with my case statement

Building upon Suever's answer, and considering that you're actually trying to solve a data-binning problem, if you have R2015a or later, you can also use the built-in discretize function to achieve the same thing; e.g.:

function bucket = ri(ar_vo,edgz)
  if nargin < 1
    edgz = [0, 0.005, 0.02, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.25, inf];
  end
  bucket = discretize(ar_vo,edgz);
  if isnan(bucket)
      error('MATLAB:RI Bucket:NotAvailable.');
  end
end
