How can I index a MATLAB array returned by a function without first assigning it to a local variable?

For example, if I want to read the middle value from magic(5), I can do so like this:

M = magic(5);
value = M(3,3);

to get value == 13. I’d like to be able to do something like one of these:

value = magic(5)(3,3);
value = (magic(5))(3,3);

to dispense with the intermediate variable. However, MATLAB complains about Unbalanced or unexpected parenthesis or bracket on the first parenthesis before the 3.

Is it possible to read values from an array/matrix without first assigning it to a variable?
