How to end the running of a script in a subfunction？

I use matlab 2014b where the script and function are in different m files. Is it possible to end the running of the script in a function?

error('Rage quitting!')

This is the best way I have seen so far, although I don't want to see the error message.

[Walter Roberson]

if the script cooperates it can use try/catch .

However if the script were cooperating then just return a value from the function and have the script detect it and take appropriate action .

In fact, i just want to end the program when the function detects something. And no more running is needed. So try/catch is not what i want. But thanks for your supplement.

[Walter Roberson]

quit() can be called from within a program if you want to exit MATLAB completely.

[mh z]

that's totally the end of program...What I mean is to end the code not the matlab. Sorry for my unclear expression.

[Walter Roberson]

Then, NO, you cannot do that without seeing the error message -- not unless the program cooperates to try/catch to detect the quit and stop itself nicely.

OK!
