Hi rheymar, Can you specifically mention what type of error you are facing and where is the implementation of this function equallystrong?

[rheymar bernardo]

I want to create this

[rheymar bernardo]

It worked one time I dont know why matlab doesnt accept that function for some reason

[rheymar bernardo]

Error in equallystrong (line 8) result = equallystrong(yourLeft, yourRight, friendsLeft, friendsRight); this is the error

You didn't include your function "equallystrong" - so how should we be able to tell what the problem is ?

[rheymar bernardo]

Why am I keep on getting error on line 8 it worked 2 times now it shows that

[rheymar bernardo]

Execution of script equallystrong as a function is not supported:

C:\Users\Acer\Desktop\equallystrong.m

Error in untitled7 (line 8)

result = equallystrong(yourLeft, yourRight, friendsLeft, friendsRight);

[Torsten]

You cannot name your script "equallystrong.m" in which you call a function with the same name - you must name the function you call with the script "equallystrong.m" and give the script a different name.

[rheymar bernardo]

Unrecognized function or variable 'equallystrong'.

Error in untitled7 (line 8)

result = equallystrong(yourLeft, yourRight, friendsLeft, friendsRight);

[rheymar bernardo]

changed it but it still shows this

[Torsten]

What is your function "equallystrong" ? You still didn't include it here.

Hello,

As per my understanding you are getting the error: Unrecognized function or variable 'equallystrong'.

As the error states, MATLAB is unable to find the function 'equallystrong'.

This issue might be caused if the function file has a different name than the function name. So rename the file where the function is declared to 'equallystrong.m'. Refer to the below link.

Ensure that the function file is on MATLAB search path. Refer to the below links for more details on MATLAB search path.
