The following program is takes the power from 1 to 3 from a given array. How do I get the result just for x3. When I put x3 it gives me the result for x1 I don't want that result I want the result of x3 only. Can anybody give me a hint?

function [x1,x2,x3] = powers1to3(n)
x1 = 1:n;
x2 = x1.^2;
x3 = x1.^3;

Use the tilde ‘~’ operator if you do not want those values returned. This syntax will return only ‘x3’:

n = ...
[~,~,x3] = powers1to3(n)
