Declaring a global variable in MATLAB

Question

Is there a way to declare global variables in MATLAB?

Please don\'t respond with:

global x y z;

Because I can also read the help fi

Answer 1

You need to declare x as a global variable in every scope (i.e. function/workspace) that you want it to be shared across. So, you need to write test1 as:

function test1()
  global x;
  x = 5;
end
