MATLAB: Hi friends.I have a problem.There is error that is index must be integer or logical.

You can't write y(0), Matlab does not allow index equal to zero. the index should be positive integer

MATLAB: Initial Value of y(0)=0

Unlike C language, MATLAB uses 1-based index for vector and matrix. So if you define a 10x1 vector, a=rand(10,1), you refer it as a(1), a(2) till a(10).

If you have the need to indicate some value at time==0, you will need to use some kind of offset to deal with it.
