How to add the variables in a function to your workspace?

So I have a function let's say like this y = fun(x) and to get the y from x, I am defining some other variables let's say like c, that I need to first compute and put it in another formula to compute y. ( F= ma , and my y here is F and my c here is a) .So my question is that how I can see what the values of c are and add it as a variable in the workspace?

Add the variable as an output.

function [y, c] = fun(x) 
c = . . .
y = . . . 
end

If you only want one of the outputs when calling the function,

y = fun(x); 
[~, c] = fun(x);

While I know that Adam knows this, to be clear for the reader..._

Remember that you also need to declare them in the function header as those variables to be returned. So your function header would look like this:

function [y,c] = fun(x)

Thanks John, I improved the answer based on your comment.
