How to run an external Matlab(.m) files and call its functions from an application code-view file?

Here is the more content about the question:

• I have created 3 different Matlab scripts with OOP (object oriented programming) to operate 2 different Keysight signal analyser and generator, including a Nema 17 stepper motor.
• All of these scripts are functioning perfectly as per my requirements
• For Keysight instruments, a connection with Matlab is required and for that three different ‘class’ are defined separately within each file for the hardware
• I created many Matlab functions for individual tasks using SCPI programming language to operate(control) the Keysight instruments and to receive the values of the power and frequency of the signal
• Now I want to use all these three scripts running in the background and want to use its functions working in an Matlab application, so basically I want to call the functions from predesigned scripts into a single application code to get the values and to control the instruments using the buttons
• So, how do I run these scripts and use the functions in the application code?

• Problems/requirements: 1. I cannot define more than one class within a single Matlab script. 2. If there is no class with defined object for a specific hardware I cannot use its functions designed for that particular hardware. 3. To establish connections and creating an object into the system, I need to run the scripts in the background first and then it is possible to use the functions

• Please suggest me how can I solve this problem because I have been going through all the available resources but unfortunately I couldn’t find any reasonable answer

your assistance would be greatly appreciated

Thank you.

See <class-definition-and-organization> area in the docs -- you package your classes so your application can import them and thereby use any of the methods contained therein.
