How do I call a function? Error:

Example:

Script 1:

function y = experiment(a,b)

y = (a + b)/2

*This is the function I want to call.

---------------------

Script 2:

function x = stupid(experiment, a, b)

x = experiment(a,b);

*This is the script I want to call my function into.

Both are saved in the /bin path.

----------

Error I receive when running in command:

stupid(experiment,1,2) ??? Input argument "a" is undefined.

Error in ==> experiment at 3 y = (a + b)/2

No idea how to go from here. Help welcome :)

stupid(@experiment, 1, 2)

Otherwise, your function "experiment" is being called when the arguments in

stupid(experiment,1,2)

are being gathered together prior to calling stupid() itself, with MATLAB expecting that experiment() will return something that is suitable for passing into the first argument that stupid() expects.
