显示 更早的评论
so to quickly summarize im trying to figure out how to make a budgeting code using the function program. the problem is that fprintf is outputting the wrong number. ill put the code below. what am i doing wrong?
function budget(x,y);
x = input('please give the budget for today:');
if isnumeric(x)
else
fprintf('Error: Input must be numeric.')
end
if isfinite(x)
else
fprintf('Error: Input must be a finite value.')
end
y = input('how much did you spend')
z = x-y;
if (y>x)
fprintf('the shopper went $%g over the budget.','z')
elseif (y>200)
fprintf('try to scale back the costs next week')
elseif (y<x)
fprintf('the shopper is $%g under budget','y')
elseif (x<=0)
fprintf('thats a great job budgeting')
elseif (y==x)
fprintf('the shopper is exactly on budget')
end

"its just what they wanted me to do for my homework"
So your homework specifically asked for you to define a function with two totally pointless input arguments? Very ... unusual.
Or did it actually ask you to define a function which accepts two input arguments, to be used in the rest of the function?

"Create a function named budget that has one input and no outputs. The input will be the amount spent at the grocery store."

"what am i doing wrong?"
fprintf('the shopper went $%g over the budget.','z')
% ^ ^ wrong: defines the character 'z'
with this:
fprintf('the shopper went $%g over the budget.',z)
% ^ refer to variable z
Ditto for y a few lines later.
