In a .m file I wrote the following. g = randi(3,1)
When I press f5 and run it. It will give me a random number from 1 to 3. However, it will not change.
E.G
>>> g
1
>>> g
1
>>> g
1
g will forever be 1, what can I do that so that when I run my code, each time i type "g" it will give me a different random number from 1 to 3?

You are not defining a function, you are defining a variable. You can use this, provided you save it in the file "g.m"
function r = g
r = randi(3,1);
end
You cannot use this at the MATLAB command prompt, you must write it to a file.

try to run code again and again it will give you different values from 1 to 3 each time
