MATLAB: How to “link” an .m file to an .mlx file

.mlx fileloadm-file

Hi, I have got this assignment in which I am required to create a function to complete a task, so I used a separate .m file, which is what we have been taught in the course. The function works appropriately and I completed the question. However, I was wondering if there is any way in which i can sort of "link", or load the .m file to the .mlx one to facilitate correction and improve presentation.

I will submit both files so if this isn't possible I will just comment that the .m file is needed for the function to work.

Thank you,

Alicia

.mlx files can have function definitions in them in recent MATLAB versions, provided that the function has a matching "end" statement.

It is not possible to "bundle" a .m file with a .mlx file, except by creating an "app"; https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/packaging-guis-as-apps.html?s_tid=CRUX_lftnav which creates a .mlappinstall file

MATLAB: Does MATFILE function creates files larger in size compared to SAVE function

The size of the file created by the “save” function is smaller when compared to the size of the file from the “matfile” function. This is because of the fact the files created using the “matfile” function are saved as version 7.3 MAT-files. These 7.3 MAT-files use an HDF5 based format that requires some storage overhead that has some meta information about the file. Hence, the size of the file is larger when compared to the file created with the “save” command.
