I totally didn't think this would be accepted. Now I feel like a bad person. :P

I believe that TMW is going to rescore all CODY solutions using feval(@eval in the future : http://blogs.mathworks.com/community/2012/02/06/scoring-in-cody/#comment-13751

As Aurelien says, we've changed it so this will fail from now on. It may take a while to root out all the old answers though.

@Ned, it seems that the new trick to have a mini score now is to use str2func lol!

Yes, there is always one more trick. Hopefully we can keep the sickness from being an epidemic.
