Hi Community
I accidentally delete surf (Attempt to execute SCRIPT surf as a function: E:\p\MATLAB\toolbox\matlab\graph3d\surf.m) and saved, now it is an empty .m file on the path. Can you please tell me how to bring it back or where to download just surf.m script?
Looking forward to your help
Many thanks in advance

Sorry, but we cannot send you a copy of code.
However, you can just download a new copy of MATLAB. Go to the support page.
Next time, don't write scripts with the same name as existing functionality. Don't delete existing code. Essentially, be more careful in what you are doing. Look, BEFORE YOU LEAP. Otherwise, you will be re-installing MATLAB more often.

Check the Windows recycle bin. If the file is still there, right-click on it and select Restore.
If not, reinstall MATLAB as John D'Errico suggested or perhaps contact Technical Support using the telephone icon in the upper-right corner of this page and ask them to send you the surf.m from the release you're using.

Hi Stewen.
Thank you for your response. I have not deleted the file itself, only deleted the content and clicked save as I thought that it is my own script. I sorted out already. Thank you for all :)
