MATLAB: Help me with this code

Question

Hi, I have a problem.

How can I use an output parameter from a function in a live script .mlx?

For example, how can I use the 'n' parameter in the Live Script from the following function?

function [n] = stat(x)

n = (x+1/x)

end

If I try to use it, the "Undefined Function or Variable 'n'." Error Message shows up.

I have a simple Live Script like this:

x = 3; % or other numbers of choice

stat(x);

n

I just need to be able to manipulate 'n' in the Live Script after the use of the function 'stat(x)'.

Thanks in advance for the assistance.

Answer 1

y=stat(x); % here n value reflects on y, 

Or

You can keep the same output argument name, like

n=stat(x);
