Use function to do a sequence of Java.Robot KeyEvents

Hello,

My question is regarding making a matlab function that when called performs a certain sequenece of key commands that I already have established in a script. I am going to be using this sequence twice, so I figured I could use a function, but I am unsure what input/output arguments I would need to use because it doesn't really use any variables. My goadl is to try and reduce the clutter of code in my script.

Is there a way to do this, or possibly try a different approach?

What does "perform a certain key commands" explicitly mean?

Do I understand correctly: You have some lines of code and want to run them twice? Then join them in a script or a function without inputs and outputs.

What is the connection to the Java Robot?

I have one set of code that I end up running twice in my script, and all the code does is perform key commands (i.e. tab, enter, up down, etc.) using java robot functionality, and I use KeyEvents to simulate key presses. The function I would ideally like to use would not take in any input arguements with the output being the key presses, not any variables. I hope that helps to define my question a little better.
