  1. Programming and Scripts - MATLAB & Simulink - MathWorks

  1. Running a MATLAB script is a straightforward process that involves executing a file containing a sequence of MATLAB commands and function calls. This can be done using the run function or by typing the script's name at the command line.

    Using the run Function

    The run function is used to execute a MATLAB script specified by its name. The syntax is simple:

    run(scriptname)

    Here, scriptname is the name of the MATLAB script you want to run. It can be a string scalar or a character vector. The script can be a MATLAB script file, Simulink model, or MEX-file.

    Example

    To run a script that is not on the current path, you can create a temporary folder, write MATLAB code to a file in that folder, and then run the script:

    tmp = tempname;
    mkdir(tmp)
    newFile = fullfile(tmp, 'ANewFile.m');
    fid = fopen(newFile, 'w');
    fprintf(fid, 'Z = magic(5);\n');
    fprintf(fid, 'b = bar3(Z);\n');
    fclose(fid);
    run(newFile)
    Copied!
