Hi,

The reason behind the error is that,

You are using 2 different names for function name and file name i.e new and Ve.

In MATLAB, if the function has only one function definition, the name of the file must match the name of the function.

So consider either of the following

1. Naming your file to new
2. Naming your function to Ve

To know more about functions, refer to the documenation page: functions

Not exactly, but related.

MATLAB has function files (first word is "function"), and class definition files (first word is "classdef") and script files (all other matlab source code.)

Function files have a file name, and can contain multiple functions. However the first function in the file will be known by the file name no matter what (valid) name is present in the file definition. This is true both for calling from inside the file and for calling from outside the file.

The user might have tried to call new() from outside the file Ve.m expecting that matlab would find new() inside Ve. However matlab would know that function as Ve, and so if the user tried to call new() it would have been some other new() that was called.
