how to access results in Matlab from shell

Hi,

I read on MATLAB Central about something like

result=$(echo "3+3"|matlab) to have the result of 3+3 calculated in matlab in the variable result in bash. I tried it on my Cygwin, but can't get 6 in the variable result.

With 'result=$(echo "3+3"|matlab), MATLAB is just not doing any calculation.

With 'result=$(echo "3+3"| matlab -r), MATLAB calculates 3+3, but the result is not returned in result.

What have I done wrong here?

Thanks for any advice in advance.
