MATLAB: How to pass variable from GUI to matlab workspace

Question

The global function is nice, for example:

(in GUI):

global y

y=5;

and then in matlab command window i type global y and it is done.

The way I want to do it is that y is automatticaly printed in workspace without me typing global y in command window. Can it be done?

Thanks.

Answer 1

don't use semicolon ;

 y=5
