how to create a function ?

I want to create a function which gives following information like

fi = @(a,b) ([a:data_len 1:b]);
if x<y
    A= x:y ;
if x>y
    A = fi(x,y);

for example:

if x=6 

y= 10

then A= 6 7 8 9 10

but if x= 20 and y=2 like time in a watch

then A= 20 21 22 23 24 1 2

but this function only gives 20 1 2 .

You are not very clear in what you want, but I would guess the value of data_len was set to 20 instead of 24 when the anonymous function fi was created.

Assuming that 0 instead of 24 is ok:

data_len = 24;
f = @(a, b) mod(a : b + data_len*(a>b), data_len);

results:

>> f(6,10)
ans =
     6     7     8     9    10

>> f(20, 2)
ans =
    20    21    22    23     0     1     2

Why not

A = rem(x:y, 24)

It's not clear why you have a 24 in there instead of 0. I've never seen 24 used for an hour in a 24 hour clock.
