I had an experiment that gave my part of spherical surface.
I didnt know where the (x,y,z) location of the surface and is radius? I want to find a way to determine the radius, and if there is some fit for spherical surface it will be the best option.

Use fminsearch to determine radius and center of the sphere which approximates your point cloud best (4 unknowns).
To this end, you will need to project your points onto the surface of a sphere suggested by fminsearch, calculate the distances between your points and their projections and sum them up. This will give you the function to minimize.

Im not sure how to use fminsearch,
I have x y z there are my data (each of them are vector with n values) and the function I want to check is (x-x0)^2+(y-y0)^2+(z-z0)^2-R^2=0
but I dont understand how to use fmin for that
thanks a lot! Israel.

During the optimization process, fminsearch gives you 4 parameters: x0, y0, z0 and R.
With these parameters you will have to calculate the distances d_i of all your points (x_i,y_i,z_i) (i=1,...,N) from the sphere (x-x0)^2+(y-y0)^2+(z-z0)^2 = R^2.
The return parameter to fminsearch is then sum_{i=1}^{N} d_i, and fminsearch will try to minimize this sum.

You don't need to find them, fminsearch will do.
You only have to provide a starting guess for x0,y0,z0 and R.

This might be of help if the use of fminsearch is too difficult:
