The err in your code is function handle
>> err
err =
function_handle with value:
@(a)sum((y(a)-ym).^2)
You are trying to compare it with numeric value (tol), read about compare function handle

You don't want to ask if the function handle is greater than a certain value.
You want to ask if the result of evaluating the function handle at a certain point is greater than a certain value.
fh = @sin;
thisWillError = fh > 0.5
thisWillWork = fh(pi/2) > 0.5
