Using the persistent function
显示 更早的评论
Hiya
I am trying to use 'persistent' to use a variable from one function to another. However, when I run my function (which is plotting the said variable), it says the plot is empty. Even though I can see the variable in the workspace with the data. Do I need to write a line of code to tell my function to pull on the data from the workspace?
Thanks

Using globals is in second place on this list of bad programming practices:
And the documentation explains how to pass data between workspaces, note that the "Best Practice" is passing arguments:

A persistent variable is local to one function and one function only. It cannot be shared with another function. It just means that the variable value is preserved between calls to the function.
A global variable is common to all workspaces (as long as each workspace declares the variable explicitly as global). global variables are extremely discouraged though. It is usually an indication of shoddy coding which in the long term will lead to extremely hard to locate bugs.
The standard way to share data between functions is to pass the return value(s) of one function as input argument(s) of the other.

It's unclear what difficutly you're encountering with passing values between functions. This is usually straightforward.
value = function1(input1, input2);
newvalue = function2(value);
or simply:
newvalue = function2(function1(input1, input2));
