Follow-up Comment #1:

Direct use of 'argn' isn't recommended.  This is reaching deep in to the
interpreter and private variables may change.  If you still want to use this
code then you will need to replace argn with


__varval__ (".argn.")


but this is still vulnerable to name and syntax changes in the future.  A more
robust, but longer, way might be


C = cell (nargin, 1);
for i = 1:nargin
  C(i) = inputname (i);
endfor


If we felt like it, inputname could be adjusted to accept a range of indices
so you could call


inputname (1:nargin)
