How can I make my simulink matlab function compute internally in single format instead of double

I have a simulink model that is consisting of combined sub-blocks, for one of those blocks I created using the matlab function block, this block will have inputs that are of type 'single' and outputs that are also of type 'single'.

How can I specify when I am writing the code for the matlab function that the inputs and outputs will be of type 'single' and that I want all the computations inside to be done based on that instead of the default which is assuming that inputs, outputs and internal computations are of type 'double' ?!

The simple answer is to ensure that any constants you use internally in the function are single format.

single * single = single...

Also, the inputs to the block must be created to be of single datatype.
