function defintions

Hi, can someone tell me what to do to solve the error prompt 'Function definitions are not permitted at the prompt or scripts'

Best Answer

Don't try to define a function at the prompt or in a script. Put functions in their own M-files.

Write this part of code and save it as fact.m

function y = fact(n)
if n<=1
  y=1;
else
  y=n*fact(n-1)
end

then call this function in Matlab Windows Command

n=5
out=fact(n)

What was "fixed" is that you are now allowed to define local functions in scripts. However, you cannot define functions (except anonymous functions) at the command line.
