Nested for loop and cell arrays

I have a cell array, A, containing 40 cells, each of different sizes. I need to use each of these cells (let's call one, A1(1x101)) in a function, which should loop through all values of A1 and output EACH iteration of the function to a NEW cell array,B, I then need to SUM ALL the arrays within B and output that array to a NEW cell array C. This needs to repeat for ALL 40 cells of A.

So I need to use the cells in A, to make a cell array B, and then use the arrays in B to make C, this whole loop should repeat 40 times for each array in A.

The first loop should use the cell A1 to output a single array,C1, into cell array C. The second loop should use A2, to output an array C2, into cell array C and so on.

The cell array B should be overwritten for each loop.

Apologies if it's not clear, I'm struggling to write the code for it quite a bit.

help cellfun

[mathman]

I've tried this but I'm having trouble implementing my function, it has 9 inputs, of which only one is changed by the content of the cell array.

So I've done:

B = cellfun((@myfunction(1,2,(-2:0.05:2),(0:0.05:4),3,THIS_CHANGES,4,5,(0:1e-08:4e-06))), A, 'UniformOutput', false');

Which returns the error:

Error: Unbalanced or unexpected parenthesis or bracket.

But I can't find where the parenthesis is unbalanced.

I'm also not 100% sure that this would do what I want it to either.As I understand it, it would output a cell array,B, where the arrays contain the outputs of myfunction for each cell of A.

So either B would be extremely large (it would have to contain each output array of each value of each cell of A) or it wouldn't do what I want it to.
