"Insufficient number of outputs from right hand side of equal sign to satisfy assignment."

Hi,
For a university project I'm having to code a K-Means clustering algorithm from scratch. As part of my code I have the following line:
[min, index] = min(NORMS);
On first run through of the code it works fine, but on the second iteration it always brings up the error "Insufficient number of outputs from right hand side of equal sign to satisfy assignment."
After clearing the variables and starting again it works fine, but again only for one iteration of the code.
Anyone have any ideas because I need to put it within a loop!
Cheers :)

If we want it work we just need to write following your example a : "clear min clear index"
before we call in the min function. In that case the code works.

You likely have inadvertently created a variable named "min" in your code, which is shadowing the function min. Go find that variable and use a different name.

that is because your output variable name and function name both are same.
for example
[stft, t, f]= stft(x,wlen,nfft);
in above function output variable in left hand side is stft and in right hand side function name is stft also.
so check this type of errors in your code.
or in matlab program you have created a variable which is already inbuilt function name of MATLAB.
