I have a variance question, however, my code isn't bringing up this in the command window when i try to run it. "Function definition are not supported in this context".

function s2 = samplevar(x)
n=length(x); %sample size
q=mean(x);% mean of vector
for x=2:n
s2= sum((x-q)^2)/(n-1); formula for sample variance
end
x =[3,5,6,7,8,10]; example of a vector
samplevar(x) output
end

This section should not be a part of the function definition. Use this section to call the function from the command window/line.
x =[3,5,6,7,8,10]; %example of a vector
%Function call
y = samplevar(x)
%This section is for the definition of the function
function s2 = samplevar(x)
n=length(x); %sample size
q=mean(x);% mean of vector
for x=2:n
s2= sum((x-q)^2)/(n-1); %formula for sample variance
end
end
