## @deftypefn  {} {@var{retval} =} endsWith (@var{str}, @var{pattern})
## @deftypefnx {} {@var{retval} =} endsWith (@var{str}, @var{pattern}, "IgnoreCase", @var{confirm_ignore})
## Checks that a cell array of strings ends with a pattern
##
## Return an array of logical values that indicates which strings in the cell
## array of strings --- or the string --- @var{str} ends with a string in the
## cell array of strings --- or the string --- @var{pattern}.
##
## If the parameter @qcode{"IgnoreCase"} is set to true, then the function
## will ignore the letter case of @var{str} and @var{pattern}.  By default, the
## comparison is case sensitive.
##
## Examples:
##
## @example
## ## one string and one pattern while considering case
## endsWith ("hello", "lo")
##       @result{}  1
##
## ## one string and one pattern while ignoring case
## endsWith ("hello", "LO", "IgnoreCase", true)
##       @result{}  1
##
## ## multiple strings and multiple patterns while considering case
## endsWith (@{"tests.txt", "mydoc.odt", "myFunc.m", "results.pptx"@},
##           @{".docx", ".odt", ".txt"@})
##       @result{}  1  1  0  0
##
## ## multiple strings and one pattern while considering case
## endsWith (@{"TESTS.TXT", "mydoc.odt", "result.txt", "myFunc.m"@},
##           ".txt", "IgnoreCase", false)
##       @result{}  0  0  1  0
##
## ## multiple strings and one pattern while ignoring case
## endsWith (@{"TESTS.TXT", "mydoc.odt", "result.txt", "myFunc.m"@},
##           ".txt", "IgnoreCase", true)
##       @result{}  1  0  1  0
