Please don't copy code from the Mathworks website here.  Its a violation of 
their terms of use.  You're free to take the risk yourself, but please don't 
implicate others.

The error message is sufficient to determine what is wrong.  You've called 
cellfun() using syntax equivalent to ...

        cellfun (@fun, cellarray1, cellarray2, ..., "uni", val)

The "uni" argument is short of "UniformOutput".  You can fix the error in 
Octave by using the full parameter name.
