Problem 213. Create a dictionary
The goal is to write a function that returns a dictionary from a list of words or phrases and their definitions. Here is an example:
>> words = {'do', 're', 'mi'}; >> definitions = {'a deer', 'a drop of golden sun', 'a name I call myself'}; >> dictionary = createDictionary(words, definitions); >> dictionary('mi')
ans =
a name I call myself
The first and second arguments will always be cell strings but can contain any characters. The output must be a function handle.
