Why do I get an error when create the M-File "Lorenz" with the following input:
function xprime = Lorenz(t,x);
%LORENZ: Computes the derivatives involved in solving the Lorenz equations
sig = 10;
beta = 8/3;
rho=28;
xprime=[-sig*x(1) + sig*x(2);rho*x(1)-x(2)-x(1)*x(3);-beta*x(3) +x(1)*x(2)];
The error says:
Error in Lorenz (line 6)
xprime=[-sig*x(1) + sig*x(2);rho*x(1)-x(2)-x(1)*x(3);-beta*x(3) +x(1)*x(2)];

I get the error (R2018b)
Error using vertcat
Dimensions of arrays being concatenated are not consistent.
Error in Untitled2>Lorenz (line 11)
xprime=[-sig*x(1) + sig*x(2); rho*x(1)-x(2)-x(1)*x(3); -beta*x(3) +x(1)*x(2)];
Error in Untitled2 (line 4)
xprime = Lorenz( t, x );
I cannot see that this statement (Lorenz (line 6)) could throw the error "Not enough input arguments."
Show your full error message.

You need to call the function, Lorenz, with two input arguments: t and x. E.g.
%%
x = (1:6);
t = nan;
xprime = Lorenz( t, x )
In your case the variable, x, is not defined in the workspace of Lorenz. Thus, the expression cannot be evaluated. Don't ask me why the error message isn't more informative.
