I see that I can define a range with 1:3. I can also apply a function to a number, e.g. sin(1). But, how do I map the range of numbers with the function? I would like to $1,2,3 \to sin(1), sin(2), sin(3)$.

    You can't use that type of markdown on SO. Use backtick for code formatting. I don't understand the question... Can you try to explain it better? Do you want `sin(1:3)`? Can you please accurately explain what you want to achieve? – Stewie Griffin Apr 20 '16 at 09:22

I suspect you want something like this:

[1:n; sin(1:n)].'
ans =
    1.0000    0.8415
    2.0000    0.9093
    3.0000    0.1411
    4.0000   -0.7568

or

f = @(n) sin(n)
f(1:n)
ans =
    0.8415    0.9093    0.1411   -0.7568

I can explain it more thoroughly if you confirm that this is what you want to achieve.
