How create .M file and function in that file with name same as file Name

I want to create a .M file and function in that file which should accept input arguments.

example:

File with name as myFuntion and should contain following code in that file

function Myfunction(~,msg)
end

Could you show an example?

[Manohar Thunga]

suppose in my code i want dynamically create '.M' file and in that created file , it should contain function which accepts inputs.

EX: create 'myFile.m'

In 'myFile.m' write a funtion as

function myFile(~,y)
statement;
end

I use a series of fprintf commands when I want to dynamically write a .m file (e.g. I have a function that creates a template for a unit test for a given function name). There's not much else to it though beyond getting all the formatting right ini those fprintf instructions.

funname = 'myFile';
filename = [funname '.m'];
[fid, msg] = fopen(filename, 'w');
if fid < 0
    error('Failed to open file "%s" because "%s"', filename, msg);
end
fprintf(fid, 'function %s(~, y)\n', funname);
fprintf(fid, 'statement;'\n');
fprintf(fid, 'end\n');
fclose(fid);
clear(funname)   %remove any cached function with that name
