function with multiple inputs in matlab

To create a function with multiple inputs in MATLAB, you can use the following syntax:

main.m
function output = functionName(input1, input2, input3)
    %function code here
end
83 chars
4 lines

The function name can be anything you like, and the input variables can also be named according to your preference.

Inside the function code, you can use the input variables to perform desired operations, and the final result can be assigned to the output variable, which will be returned to the caller of the function.

Here is an example of a MATLAB function that computes the average of three input numbers:

main.m
function avg = computeAverage(x, y, z)
    % Compute the average
    avg = (x + y + z) / 3;
end
96 chars
5 lines

To call this function, you would enter the following command in the MATLAB command window:

main.m
>> result = computeAverage(10, 20, 30)
result =
    20

4 lines

In this example, the input values 10, 20, and 30 are passed to the function computeAverage, which computes their average and returns the result as output, which is assigned to the variable result.
