Input function does not display the command in command window

I am new to MATLAB and cannot figure out what I am doing wrong.

When writing script, I use the input function. For example:

%this function can be used to tell if one is eligible to drive.

age = input('Enter your age: ')

if age<16

disp('sorry, you are not eligible.')

else

disp('yes, you are eligible')

end

When I Run the script, MATLAB automatically generates a random matrix consisting of numbers:

>> Untitled2

age =

Columns 1 through 9

4761 12100 13456 10201 12996 1024 14641 12321 13689

Columns 10 through 16

12996 1024 9409 10609 10201 3364 1024

yes, you are eligible

I am not sure what I am doing wrong, could someone help me out?

Looks like you have made a file named input.m remove it from the path or rename it.

That fixed it! Thank you! I am incredibly new to this, I appreciate your help. I just renamed the file and removed the current one from the path.
