a = calc_green_strain(arguments);
Then first of all, just leaving off the semicolon will cause the value of a to display after the function returns.
a = calc_green_strain(arguments)
and that's all you need in your "Display results" function. But you probably want a little more control over when it displays.
You could also do it this way:
a = calc_green_strain(arguments);
a
The second line, a without a semicolon, will cause it to display.
And then there's formatted output with functions like FPRINTF, but I don't know if you've seen that yet.
I have an assignment in a coding class asking me to display the results of previous functions that I have coded. I named the file display_results and my previous functions work when I type them in the command window but I cannot get anything to display the results of these functions in the editing window. I have never used MATLAB before this so the more details the better. Thank you!
Here is the question:
PROBLEM 4
--
DISPLAY RESULTS
--
display_results.m
-------------------------------------------------
Write a script that simply calls your other functions with some trial values and DISPLAYS the results.
Remember that if you leave the semicolon off a line of code (ie when you call a function) it will display the value.
My previous functions are named calc_green_strain.m, calc_rms.m, and calc_sphere_vol_sa.m
