run a script inside another script

Hello,

I have made a script called "EPSO" that do a lot of calculations and in the end it gives the global_best_solution. I want to test the strength because if i run 100 times the global_best_solution should be always the same. So i've made a script that run this script and should keep the global_best_solution in each iteration.

for i=1: 3

 EPSO;

 solutions(1,i)=global_best_solution;

end

The problem is that this doesn't keep the result each time i run it. Thanks in advance

Could it be that the variable, i, occurs in ESPO?

That's what functions are for.

Convert EPSO to a function

    function global_best_solution = ESPO_fcn( indata, if, needed )
        the code of ESPO
    end

and next write a script

    N = 3;
    solutions = nan( 1, N ); % pre-allocate memory

    for ii = 1 : N
        solution( 1, ii ) = ESPO_fcn( indata, if, needed );
    end
