Assign it to a variable for later use.<\/li>\n<li>To run MATLAB code, use the matlab.engine variable followed by a period, and then input the code you want to run. For example, eng.eval(&#8220;a = 2; b = 3; c = a + b;&#8221;) runs the MATLAB code a = 2; b = 3; c = a + b;.<\/li>\n<li>To access the value of a MATLAB variable, simply use the matlab.engine variable followed by a dot, then enter the name of the MATLAB variable you want to retrieve its value.
