Max and Min values within vectors in a cell matrix

Hi everyone. I'm a strong user of MATLAB Answers and I've searched a lot to find an answer to this particular question but I couldn't... I need to find max and min values within vectors that are in a cell matrix. The cell matrix is quite big Nx865x351 where N will not be bigger than 10. Each cell has a vector (1xM, with M variable from vector to vector) or it can be an empty vector (so vectors in the different cells HAVE NOT the same size). So, for each 'N' I want to find the max and min value of all the values in the vectors contained in the 865x351 subpart of the cell matrix. I managed to do it in some way (written below) but I definitevely don't like it, I think there must be a faster and better way. At the end I just want 2 vectors with the max and min values for each N position. In the code
%pos_number=N
%power_critical_all -> cell matrix Nx865x351
min_interf=zeros(1,pos_number);
max_interf=zeros(1,pos_number);
mn = cellfun(@(x) min(x(:)),power_critical_all,'UniformOutput',0);
mx = cellfun(@(x) max(x(:)),power_critical_all,'UniformOutput',0);
% here I replace empty vectors by NaNs because cell2mat doesn't work then if I don't do it
mn(cellfun(@isempty,mn))={NaN};
mx(cellfun(@isempty,mx))={NaN};
mn=cell2mat(mn);
mx=cell2mat(mx);
for i=1:pos_number
min_interf(i)=min(mn(i,:));
max_interf(i)=max(mx(i,:));
end
An annex to this question (not so important but if someone knows how to...): what if I have the case that each vector (not an empty one, obviously) within a cell of the cell matrix has two rows and I just want to get the min and max values from the second row?
I hope I explain myself correctly and thanks in advance for your comments!

CELLFUN(@isempty) is much slower than CELLFUN('isempty').
All your cell elements are vectors. Then CELLFUN(@min) is about 4 times faster than CELLFUN(@(x) min(x(:)).

variant
N = size(C,1);
out = zeros(N,2);
for i1 = 1:N
p1 = [C{i1,:,:}];
out(i1,:) = [min(p1) max(p1)];
end

Dear Andrei and Juan I have same problem, but in my case, vector is 2xM, cell = {[1:5 6:10],[10:15 16:20],[21:25 26:30]} how to find max and min value for each vector?? and the answer may be like this: max =[5 10 15 20 25 30] min=[1 6 10 16 21 26] thanks in advance and sorry for comment a new question

% C is a {Nx865x351} cell.
minValue = zeros(1, N);
maxValue = zeros(1, N); % [EDITED]: was "minValue" a 2nd time
for i = 1:N
[minValue(i), maxValue(i)] = MinMaxElem(C{i, :, :});
end
Getting Min and Max at the same time is much faster than obtaining them separately: For the sequence [1, 2, 3] the first element is the Min and the Max, for the following elements it is enough to check, if it is the new Max - if so, a check for a new Min value can be omitted!

Please post the error messages, such that we can give an advice.
Using a C-Mex is not hard: Install a C-compiler (I struggled just for 2 days to install MSVC2010+SDK7.1+SP1, 64 bit. Actually it is trivial, but there are bugs in the SP1 installers provided by Microsoft.), run "mex -setup", download the FEX submission, run "mex -O MinMaxElem.c". Or you can download the pre-compiled DLL from my webpage, but this works for 32 bit only at the moment.
