Create the function myfunction.m that performs a calculation using the inputs x and y and stores the results in z.

function z = myfunction(x,y)
z = x.^2 + y;

Go to the Editor tab and click Run . MATLAB^® displays the list of commands available for running the function.

Click the last item in the list and replace the text type code to run with a call to the function including the required input arguments. For example, enter the text result = myfunction(1:10,5) to run myfunction with the input arguments 1:10 and 5, and store the results in the variable result. MATLAB replaces the default command with the newly added command.

To run multiple commands at once, enter the commands on the same line. For example, enter the text a = 1:10; b = 5; result = myfunction(a,b) to create the variables a and b and then call myfunction with a and b as the input arguments.

Click the Run button. MATLAB runs the function using the first run command in the list. For example, click Run to run myfunction using the command result = myfunction(1:10,5). MATLAB displays the result in the Command Window.

result =

     6     9    14    21    30    41    54    69    86 

To run the function using a different run command from the list, click Run and select the desired command. When you select a run command from the list, it becomes the default for the Run button.

To edit or delete an existing run command, click Run , right-click the command, and then select Edit or Delete.
