create a function that accepts a vector input and a scalar input and returns the value of the vector indexed by the scalar. in matlab

You can create a function in MATLAB that takes a vector input and a scalar input and returns the value of the vector indexed by the scalar using the following code:

main.m
function value = getValueAtIndex(vector, index)
    value = vector(index);
end

Here's an example of how you can use this function:

main.m
myVector = [10, 20, 30, 40, 50];
myScalar = 3;

result = getValueAtIndex(myVector, myScalar);
disp(result); % Output: 30

In this example, the getValueAtIndex function takes a vector myVector and an index myScalar as inputs. It then returns the value of the vector at the given index by accessing vector(index). In this case, the result would be 30, as the value at index 3 in myVector is 30.

Note that this function assumes that the index provided is within the bounds of the vector. If an invalid index is provided, MATLAB will throw an error.
