Matlab code related to finance

Generate a matrix that includes the adjusted close prices of the assets.

At first, I download the data as follows

stocks = hist_stock_data('01012010','01012020','GOOGL','AAPL', 'AMZN', 'MSFT');

But After that, I see this error message:

Unrecognized function or variable 'hist_stock_data'.

I cannot continue to solve this question. How can I do that? Please share your ideas and some hints with me thank you

This sounds like a homework assignment. If it is, show us the code you've written to try to solve the problem and ask a specific question about where you're having difficulty and we may be able to provide some guidance.

If you aren't sure where to start because you're not familiar with how to write MATLAB code, I suggest you start with the MATLAB Onramp tutorial (https://www.mathworks.com/support/learn-with-matlab-tutorials.html) to quickly learn the essentials of MATLAB.

If you aren't sure where to start because you're not familiar with the mathematics you'll need to solve the problem, I recommend asking your professor and/or teaching assistant for help.

I underatand. I dont want you to do all parts in fact. Yes, I am beginner in Matlab. so, please just help me to call these data and create a matrix. Please help me to do the part (a). I can easily formulate the rest parts. Thanks a lot.

The function 'hist_stock_data' accepts only three arguments if you're referring to this function.

So you can write like this individually.

 stocks_Google = hist_stock_data('01012010','01012020','GOOGL'); 
 stocks_Amazon = hist_stock_data('01012010','01012020','AMZN');
