Trying to calculate a volume by changing equation for volume for different variable parameter

Hi, I am trying to calculate the volume of a tank given different values for radius and height of tank and liquid. My code keeps saying I have an undefined variable V. If someone could please help me figure out how to correct this I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you!

function Volume 
h = 0:10
H = 10
r = 1
Vol = zeros([],1);
rad = zeros([],1);
Height = zeros([],1);
height = zeros([],1);
for i = 0:length(h)
if h <= r 
    V = pi.*h.^2.*(3.*r-h)./3
elseif (r <= h) & (h <= H-r)
    V = 2.*pi.*r.^3./3+pi.*r.^2.*(h-r)
elseif ((H-r) <= h) & (h<=H)
    V = 4.*pi.*r.^3./3+pi.*r.^2.*(H-2.*r)-pi.*(H-h).^2.*(3.*r-H+h)./3
end 
    Vol(i) = V ;
    rad(i) = r ;
    Height(i) = H;
    height(i) = h;
end 
disp('height   volume')
disp([height;Vol])

Hi Alison,

You're using the array 'h' in your if else statement which as written doesn't satisfy any of the conditions causing 'V' to never be defined.

If you're meaning to iterate over 'h' use:

h(i)
