Kenneth - please show the callback which includes the code that calls the Agecategory function. Given the error message and the signature of this function, I suspect that you are not passing the AgeofCasualty input parameter into this function. Since the signature is

 function [Agelessthan25,Agebetween25to50,Ageabove50]= Agecategory(AgeofCasualty)

then you must call it like

 [Agelessthan25,Agebetween25to50,Ageabove50]= Agecategory(42);

where 42 is passed as the input parameter into this function.

MATLAB: Call a script via a function

Look at this

    >> cssm
    ans =
    Greeting from the script

where cssm is the function

    function   out = cssm()
        cssm_script
    end

and where cssm_script is the script

   % cssm_script
    out = 'Greeting from the script';

The script is running in the workspace of the calling function. The effect is the same as if the code of the script was copy&pasted into the calling function.

There may be other things wrong, but these 2 lines are surely not what you want. You pass in p and v as input arguments, then you just set them to empty here:

p = []; % Celestial body initial positions vector 
        % Will be N by 2 e.g. p1 = [px,py]
v = []; % Celestial body initial velocities vector
        % Also N by 2 e.g. v1 = [vx,vy]

It's not obvious what all the lines of code above this are all about either - they seem somewhat pointless.

You need to use the input arguments that you pass in - e.g. mass, not m as you do further down the code (or you could change your input argument name to 'm', but I much prefer 'mass' as it says what it is, 'm' is meaningless).

The biggest difference between a function and script is the arguments that you pass into it instead of creating within the function. Never over-write the input arguments!
