How to deliver a few calculated results from a function to another function in order to perform further calculation

Dear All,
Thanks for your time.
I would like to deliver a few results from one subfunction to a main function in order to carry out more calculation. However, I have always got an error message wich indicates that multiple values cannot be assigned. the sample example is: function [a b c]=d a=3 b=4 c=5 end
function [a b c]=g a=6 b=7 c=8 end
function [e f]=h for i=1:2 [a{1} b{1} C{1}]=d [a{2} b{2} C{2}]=g e=a+b f=c*1 end end
Apparently the function d and g can only deliver value a, even though b and c are both included in the functions.
How could I carry out this?
Thanks very much.

How are you calling your function? Are you calling it from your main m-file (or from the command line) as:
[a b c]= g();
?

doc function

Hi Sean,
I don't really understand what is the doc function? Could you please explain to me a bit more.
Thanks.
If you run that at the command line it will bring up the documentation for function. The doc is very helpful and provides many examples on how to use functions effectively.
Hi Sean, I have looked at the doc function. First, my function is setting up slight different than the example function as there is no input required in the function. The output only delivers the solution from 'ans' rather than defined a, b and c. Would you mind to have a look the sample I put on and see what the problem is?
Thank you very much.
