MATLAB: Am I getting the error message “Unbalanced or unexpected parenthesis or bracket”

matlab function

I'm using MATLAB for the first time in two years after taking one introductory class on it. My assignment is to design a function that finds the maximum jump(s), K, between two values in a vector, x, and the position, y, that this jump(s) occurs.
My code currently is this:
function [K,y] = FindMaxJump (x)
a = abs(diff(x)); %Find the jump between successive values
y = find(a == max(a));
K = max(a); %Store the maximum jump in vector K
disp(K) disp(y)
end
Everytime I try to use the function (for example I input FindMaxJump[1 2 5]) I get the error message stated above. Am I using the function wrong or is there an error in my code?

Best Answer

Try
[K,y] = FindMaxJump([1 2 5])
