There are several types of functions available with MATLAB®, including local functions, nested functions, private functions, and anonymous functions.
To determine which function to call when multiple functions in the current scope have the same name, MATLAB uses function precedence order.
Variables in Nested and Anonymous Functions
Variables used within nested and anonymous functions must be present in the text of the code. If you add a variable to the workspace of an anonymous function, a nested function, or a function that contains a nested function dynamically, MATLAB issues an error.
