dat=load('data.dat')
a=dat(:,1)
b=dat(:,2)
s=size(a)
s=s(1)
out=zeros(s,1)
for n=1:s
out(n)=(b(n+1)-b(n-1))/(a(n+1)-a(n-1))
end
c=[a out]

What the code was supposed to be? it looks like the variable out is suppose to be the numerical derivative of b with respect to a. If the distance between each "a" is uniform and increasing, than this is the central scheme for 1st order differentiation with 2nd order accuracy and the line describe basically

Size returns two values, so s(1) saves the first dimension in order to perform the loop and size assignment. It would be the same if you did:
s=size(a,1);
out=zeros(s,1);
