How to creat functions that return >1 Variables

Question

Sebastian 2011-2-7

This may be a dumb question, but I'm having problems on creating functions that return more than 1 value. Let me give you an example:

function [addi, subt]= addsub(a,b)
%Addiert und Subtrahiert zwei Werte a, b. addsub(a,b)
    c=a+b;
    d=a-b;
    addi=c;
    subt=d;
end

If I call the function from the command window with: addsub(9,10) It returns ans=19 . So my question is, how can i tell matlab to return 19 and -1 ?

Thanks in Advance Sebastian

well, silly me. I found out, how to call the function:

[ret1 , ret2]=addsub(9,10)
ret1 = 19
ret2 = -1
