-it can be replaced by a break keyword
-it is used to return outputs
-it is used to define default arguments
-it is used to terminate a function early
-it can be replaced by a continue keyword

Answer 1

The return keyword in MATLAB functions is used to return outputs.

The correct answer is option: "it is used to return outputs.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a return keyword is used inside a MATLAB function, it specifies the output values that will be returned to the calling function.

The return keyword is followed by the variable values or expressions that should be returned.

For example, suppose we have a MATLAB function named calculateAverage that calculates the average of a given array of numbers:

function average = calculateAverage(numbers) sum = 0; for i = 1:length(numbers) sum = sum + numbers(i); end average = sum / length(numbers);end

In this example, the return keyword is used to specify the output value average that will be returned to the calling function.
