Can I store and call functions from within a struct?

Hi everyone,
i want to create a struct with the following fields: analysis(i).type (this is a list of different types of possible analysis) analysis(i).function (this should contain the specific function that should be executed, if a specific type of analysis was chosen)
I've tried some things so far, but nothing worked...so i'm wondering if this is even possible?
Thank you!

Hi,
you can store function handles in a struct and use them like this:
fun1 = @(x,y) x + y
fun2 = @(x,y) x - y
analysis.add = fun1
analysis.subtract = fun2
res1 = analysis.add(1,2)
res2 = analysis.subtract(5,3)
Best regards
Stephan

And if the function to execute is a m file (as opposed to anonnymous functions in Stephan and Stephen's example), then:
%store function handle to m file myfunc.m:
analysis.add = @myfunc

To further this question, I would like to use fields of the struct as parameters in the functions, hopefully without having to write an entire class for this purpose.
for example
circ = struct('Radius', 3 ,...
'Area', @() pi*Radius^2 );
where 'radius' in the anon function somehow references circ.Radius
Then, radius may be change by other programs or the user action but whenever I access circ.Area, it references the current radius.
Cheers, Henry

Fair enough. I think I've resolved that this can only be acheived by creating a class for the object i'm interested. There's no support of methods for a struct.
