Say I have the following function, that calculates the transpose and inverse of a matrix:
function [At, Ai] = TransposeAndInverse(A)
At = A.';
Ai = inv(A);
end
and I call it with the following argument:
A = [1,2,3;4,5,6];
[At, Ai] = TransposeAndInverse(A);
I get an error, since A is not invertible (as expected). However, inside the function, At was calculated successfully.
My question is - can I somehow extract the output arguments that were calculated before the error was thrown using a try catch statement? And if so, how?
Thanks

No, the function would have to be designed to use try/catch itself. Once an error is thrown and the function has returned all of its internal variables are gone.
