How can I convert a matlab code to C?

I want to convert this to C code

function [c]= add(a,b)

c=a+b

How is the compiler used to convert this to C, i am new to this. I do not have a Matlab coder.

If you don't have MATLAB Coder, you will have to write it yourself. There is no other way to automatically generate C code out of MATLAB code.

MATLAB Coder is the only product for converting MATLAB to C.

MATLAB Compiler (a different product) does not convert to C: it converts to internal data structures that are interpreted by a MATLAB engine.

Thanks. I guess i would get a coder. But how is the compiler used, i would like to see its benefits. I have never used it before
