create a readme file for a function using markdown in matlab

To create a readme file for a MATLAB function using Markdown, you can follow these steps:

1. Create a new Markdown file in a text editor.

2. Add a title for the file, for example, "Documentation for function_name MATLAB function."

3. Add a brief description of the function and what it does.

4. Create a code block that shows how to call the function. For example:

   main.m
   % Example usage:
   func_output = function_name(func_input1, func_input2);
   72 chars
   3 lines

5. Add a section for input arguments with a brief description of each argument and its expected data type. You can create a table with the arguments and descriptions to make it more readable. For example:

   | Argument name | Description | Data type | | --- | --- | --- | | func_input1 | Description of func_input1. | double | | func_input2 | Description of func_input2. | char |

6. Add a section for output arguments with a brief description of what the function returns. You can also use a table for this section. For example:

   | Argument name | Description | Data type | | --- | --- | --- | | func_output | Description of func_output. | double |

7. Add a section for any additional notes or examples that might be relevant.

8. Save the Markdown file with a filename that makes sense, for example, "function_name_readme.md".

9. Copy the Markdown content and paste it into the function's help block. For example:

   main.m
   function func_output = function_name(func_input1, func_input2)
