How to take Image as Input in a function

Im trying to make a function that takes a image of any type (png,jpeg etc) and then performs some task on them. But i cannot figure how to take the image as input in the function. Please help :)

You'd have to first load the image into MATLAB and store it in a variable. You can then pass that variable as input to your function.
Here's the link to a doc page on importing images.

figured it out thanks to you! Cheers
how did you solve it? I have the same question.
I'm struggling with the same thing. I know my code works, because when I remove the function header and the code with a specific image inserted in the imread funciton the code works. It only stops working when I try to run it as a function. This is my function header.
function Organize(fn)
%code
end
How would I call the function with the image being the fn input?
I also made sure that the image is downloaded into the proper file
Share the code you have written (including loading your image) that calls/uses your function.

For example
grayImage = imread('moon.tif');
meanGL = mean2(grayImage)
meanGL = 52.9154
grayImage2 = DarkenImage(grayImage); % Call function
meanGL2 = mean2(grayImage2)
meanGL2 = 26.7118
%======================================================
% Define function that divides the image values by 2
function output = DarkenImage(inputImageArray)
output = inputImageArray / 2;
end
