Error while converting the function to C

function dataout = removeoutliers(datain)

%REMOVEOUTLIERS Remove outliers from data using the Thompson Tau method.

% For vectors, REMOVEOUTLIERS(datain) removes the elements in datain that

% are considered outliers as defined by the Thompson Tau method. This

% applies to any data vector greater than three elements in length, with

% no upper limit (other than that of the machine running the script).

% Additionally, the output vector is sorted in ascending order.

%

% Example: If datain = [1 34 35 35 33 34 37 38 35 35 36 150]

%

% then removeoutliers(datain) will return the vector:

% dataout = 33 34 34 35 35 35 35 36 37 38

%

% See also MEDIAN, STD, MIN, MAX, VAR, COV, MODE.

This is my function while converting it to C through coder app I am getting following error:

output argument 'dataout' is not assigned on some execution paths.

[Walter Roberson]

What value is it assigned if length(datain) < 3?

[Rohan Mehta]

dataout = datain;

Still the error is present
