Simpson's Rule

i need to count with Simpson's Rule s but some where i have mistake....
>> f=@(x)(exp(x).*sqrt(1+sin((pi.*x)./2))); %Change here for different function
a=-1;b=3; %Given limits
n=6; %Number of intervals
h=(b-a)/n;
p=0;
for i=a:b
p=p+1;
x(p)=i;
y(p)=(exp(i).*sqrt(1+sin((pi.*i)./2))); %Change here for different function
end
l=length(x);
x
y
answer=(h/3)*((y(1)+y(l))+4*(y(3)+y(5))+(y(2)+y(4)+y(6)))
pls help my to find mistake

Your x vector should be:
x = a:h:b;
and since you have already correctly defined f, y is simply:
y = f(x);
Then take a closer look at your Simpson formula.
