how to store vector-valued function value into a single vector variable

I've defined a vector-valued function "myvec" in file "myvec.m" like this:

   function [a b c]=myvec(x)
     a=x+1;
     b=x+2;
     c=x+3;
   end

What syntax do I enter on the command line to get the output vector value of this function stored into a single vector variable "u"?

Note: I tried e.g. to enter on the command line

   u=myvec(7)
But this only stores a single scalar value into "u". It results in: 

      u=
           8 
i.e., only the 1st element of the actual vector value of myvec(7) gets stored into "u".
What I want instead is to get all 3 elements of myvec(x)  stored into "u", so that, e.g.,

    u = [8 9 10]    for  myvec(7).

Can this be done with a single assignment statement, i.e. using something like

    u=....    ?

Or

    u(:)=....      ?

Or

     u(1:3) = ....   ?

[u(1) u(2) u(3)] = myvec(7);

or a better way is to change your function so that it outputs a vector rather than 3 scalars.

Thanks! So, I guess re-defining the function as

function a=myvec(x)

a(1)=x+1;

a(2)=x+2;

a(3)=x+3;

end

will work. If I now execute

u = myvec(7)

then the whole vector gets stored into u:

u=

8 9 10
