Why do get error in line 10: Function Keyword is invalid here. This might cause later messages about end.

I am trying to create a recursive function with output a Cell (1xN)that will consists of N matrixes. Each matrix represent a combination between the elements of X1 input Cell. I dont understand why i get this error.. Thank you for any help in advance!
VARMTD=[1,1/3,1/5];
VARMT1=(1:156);
ERLANGVARCELL={};
ERLANGVARCELL{1}=VARMT;
ERLANGVARCELL{2}=VARMTD;
A=zeros(1,length(ERLANGVARCELL));
ADR=zeros(1,length(ERLANGVARCELL));
Q=myfun(ERLANGVARCELL,A,ADR);
function G= myfun(x1,x4,ADR)
b=find(x4>0);
if length(b)==length(x1)
x3=length(b);
else
x3=length(b)+1;
end
i=ADR(x3)+1;
if i<=length(x1{x3})
x4(x3)=x1{x3}(i);
ADR(x3)=ADR(x3)+1;
end
for s=length(x1):1
hlp=1;
if s==length(x1);
hlp=1;
else
for b=(s+1):length(x1)
hlp=length(x1{b})*hlp;
end
end
if ADR(s)==length(x1{s})*hlp
ADR(s)=0;
x4(s-1)=0;
end
end
G=[x4,myfun(x1,x4,ADR)];
end

You can't mix a script and a function in the same m-file. If an m-file contains a function, the first line of code in the file must start with the word function (or classdef). The message is because function is an invalid keyword if it is in a file that has started some other way.
The solution is to put your function into a file by itself. The file should be called myfun.m
