I'm not sure of what you are asking for. It looks like you want to
evaluate a function f on the curve defined by 2 vectors x,y  instead of
evaluating it on the grid defined by x,y (which is done by feval). If
this is  what you are searching for  you can use something like feval2
below :


function z=feval2(x,y,f)
    //  eval f on the curve t->(x(t),y(t))
    // and on the grid defined by x,y
    deff('z=newf(k)','z=f(x(k),y(k))')
    // x,y are global variables for the "newf" function
    z=feval(1:length(x),newf)
    // "newf" is a local variable for "feval2"
endfunction

then try the example  :


-->deff('z=f(x,y)','z=x.^2-y.^2') // test function

-->x=-3:3;y=x;

-->z=feval(x,y,f)// grid evaluation
 z  =

    0.    5.    8.    9.    8.    5.    0.
  - 5.    0.    3.    4.    3.    0.  - 5.
  - 8.  - 3.    0.    1.    0.  - 3.  - 8.
  - 9.  - 4.  - 1.    0.  - 1.  - 4.  - 9.
  - 8.  - 3.    0.    1.    0.  - 3.  - 8.
  - 5.    0.    3.    4.    3.    0.  - 5.
    0.    5.    8.    9.    8.    5.    0.

-->z=feval2(x,y,f) // curve evaluation
 z  =

    0.    0.    0.    0.    0.    0.    0.

Best regards
