Code:

>> a = [ 1 2 3 4 ];
b = padarray(a,[0 3],'symmetric','pre')
??? Undefined function or method 'padarray' for input arguments of type 'double'.

Given that this is an example from the documentation for padarray, I'm not sure why it isn't working.

PADARRAY Documentation says:

%   Class Support
%   -------------
%   When padding with a constant value, A can be numeric or logical.
%   When padding using the 'circular', 'replicate', or 'symmetric'
%   methods, A can be of any class.  B is of the same class as A.
