It is a duplicate of
Problem 157. The Hitchhiker's Guide to MATLAB : http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/cody/problems/157-the-hitchhiker-s-guide-to-matlab

Not a duplicate, a variation (as mentioned in the description). The previous one returned true/false if the input was the Answer. This one requests that the output be the Answer. :o)
