function[error, tip, amount]=CalcTip(bill,serv)
%return error code of zero
error=0;
%cal tip based on level of service using switch..
switch serv
case 1
%poor(5 percent no min)
tip=(5/100)*bill;
amount=tip+bill;
case 2
%fair(10 percent min of £1)
tip=(10/100)*bill;
if tip<1
tip=1;
end
amount=bill_tip;
case 3
%good(15 percent min of £2)
tip=(15/100)*bill;
if tip<2
tip=2;
end
amount=bill+tip;
otherwise
tip=0;
amount=bill;
error=1; %because we now have an error
end
end

How did you run your code/the function?

I saved it as CalcTip.m then put [error,tip,amount]=CalcTip(50,2) into Command Window

amount=bill-tip;% typo with operator
There is a typo for the operator in the above line which presumably makes Matlab think it as unused function

It is present in case 2, and instead shown as
amount=bill_tip;% typo
