Hi, I am trying to break a code in an intermediate function of the whole procedure I am running. For example, I run "my_script.m" which calls an intermediate function "my_function.m". I would like to break/pause the code at line 15 of "my_function.m". It is basic programming feature, but (surprsingly) couldnt do it or find quick instructions in the internet. I am grateful for any help. Thanks.

Would the pause function do what you want? Also, see the list of related functions at the end of that page.

My pleasure.
What do you want to do with the paused code? What do you want to do at Line 15 of "my_function.m"?
If you want to examine or change a variable, another option is inputdlg and its friends (listed in and at the end of that page). One benefit of inputdlg is that it and its friends don’t clutter the Command Window.
