Is Pop the loop variable? No, that's a.
Is Pop a sliced variable? Does it satisfy the four requirements given on
that page? It does not, so it is not a sliced variable. In particular it
fails the "Fixed Index Listing" requirement; in one place you index into it
with a and : and in another you index into it with a and pop_cols.
Similarly Pop is not a broadcast, reduction, or temporary variable.
You can do what you want by modifying the temporary Child variable
(replacing its last element with Inf) and then deleting the third line
inside the PARFOR. That should cause Pop to satisfy the four requirements
for a sliced variable.
parfor a = 1 : pop_size
Child = rand(1,pop_cols);
Child(end) = Inf;
Pop(a, :) = Child();
end
Note I haven't tested this, but I believe it should work.
