I am a new octave user (matlab refugee) and trying to get through a few very basic problems to get going. I am trying to define functions within a script as shown in the code below. The script fails claiming it cannot find the function. The only workaround is to make the main script a function as well but this has some repercussions regarding preserving variables. Short of having separate files running around with my functions is there a way to help the script "see" the function definition?
Thanks

%%%%%%%% functions %%%%%%%
function maxpoint (p)
printf("point= %d",p);
endfunction
error: 'maxpoint' undefined near line 2 column 1
