MATLAB: Error handling

error

Hi,
I am working for a thesis where i need to check some code automatically. whenever an error is encountered while running an m-file i need to have the error message contained in a variable as a string. is it possible?
Also,is there any function so that MATLAB will return a preset value to a variable whenever error is encountered instead of throwing an error message?

You could do something like this
try
  ...
catch me
  errmsg = lasterror;
  errstr = errmsg.message;
end
Alternatively you can also do
try
  ...
catch me
  errstr = getReport(me,'basic');
end
