Functions must be placed at the very bottom of your script or in a separate file. Try this:

close all;
load lawdata
rng default 
a = imread('Fig5.jpg');
b = imread('Fig4.jpg');
a_red = a(:,:,1);
b_red = b(:,:,1); 
%imagem completa, i.e., a media de todas as linhas
for i=1:length(a_red(1,:))
    aux(i) = mean(a_red(:,i));
    aux_b(i) = mean(b_red(:,i));
    pixel (i) = i;
end
figure; plot(aux,'r')
hold on
plot(aux_b,'b')
hold off
title('Curva SPR')
legend('Figura4','Figura5')
%bootstrap  
for i = 1:length(a_red(1,:))
    [bootstat,bootsam] = bootstrp_f(2000,a_red(:,1));
    [bootstat,bootsam] = sort(m, 'ascend');
    bootstat(1,:)
    sup(i) = m(1950);
    inf(i) = m(90);
end

[ma, ia] = min(aux(80:160));
[mb, ib] = min(sup(80:160));
% #### This value is not captured in a variable ####
abs(ia-ib); % valor absoluto
figure; histogram(bootstat)
se = std(bootstat);
se = 0.1285;
hold on
hold off
mm = bootstrp_f(2000,@mean,y);
figure
[ia,ib] = ksdensity(mm);
figure; plot(ia,ib)
hold on
hold off
figure; plot(min(sup))
hold on
hold off

%%
function[mm] = bootstrp_f(B, dados)
mm = zeros(B,1);
for i=1:B
    mm(i) = mean(datasample(dados, length(dados)));
end
end

I didn't look close enough. This function call syntax is incorrect

mm = bootstrp_f(2000,@mean,y);

There are too many inputs (bootstrp_f has 2 inputs), the variable y doesn't exist, and you are trying to pass in a function, something your function doesn't support.

Better to try

mm = bootstrp_f(2000,mean(<varname>));

[Walter Roberson]

note how Cris added an extra end statement . When you define a function inside a script then every function must have a corresponding end statement .

however in the case where the function is in the correct location in a script but is missing the end statement then it is a different error message you would get.

The error message observed occurs in two circumstances:

1. you tried to define a function at the command prompt .That is not permitted in any MATLAB release and is not likely to be implemented any time soon.
2. you tried to define a function inside a script in a release before r2016b . Before that function statements could never appear in scripts I suspect this is cause of your message .
