function theEvalString = vargstr(fcn, nvarargin, nvarargout)

% vargstr -- Eval-string for varargin and varargout.
%  vargstr('fcn', nvarargin, nvarargout) returns a string
%   that calls the 'fcn' function when eval-ed.  The input
%   and output arguments are expressed as vargargin{...}
%   and varargout{...}, respectively.  If nvarargin or
%   nvarargout is a cell-object, its length is used.
%   The argument-counts default to zero.
