functions within the script

i wanted to call the same function several times but with different variables eachtime in the same script

for example

function [a]=myfunction(r)

a=10*r

end

a=myfunction(5)

a=myfunction(7)

i want when run the script to have all results at once but it shows this error message

Error: File: myhot.m Line: 5 Column: 2

This statement is not inside any function.

(It follows the END that terminates the

definition of the function "myfunction".)

thankyou

If you are writing a script file which contains both commands and function definitions, the functions must be placed at the end of the file. Read about it here - Declare Functions in MATLAB.

Thank you sir for answering But I want to call the function in the script not in the command line , so when I run the script it will give me the results If it is possible, can you demonstrate the above example given by me ?

Put the script first, not after the function. And make sure the function ends with an "end" statement.
