I'm trying to plot my function into a graph but it won't even run

So here's my code:

function y= displacement(theta)
if theta >=0 && theta <= pi/2
    y=6*(2*theta-0.5*sin(theta));
elseif theta >= pi/2 && theta <= 2*pi/3
    y=6;
elseif theta >= 2*pi/3 && theta <= 4*pi/3
    y=6-3*abs(1-0.5*cos(3*theta-2*pi));
elseif theta >= 4*pi/3 && theta <= 3*pi/2
    y=3;
elseif theta >= 3*pi/2 && theta <= 7*pi/4
    y=3-1.5*((theta-3*pi)/(pi/4))^2;
elseif theta >= 7*pi/4 && theta <= 2*pi
    y=0.75-0.75*(1-((theta-(7*pi/4))/(pi/4)))^2;
end
theta=linespace(0,2*pi,500);
y=displacement(theta);
plot(theta,y,'r','Linewidth',2)
grid on;
legend({'displacement(theta)'},'fontsize',10)
xlabel('Theta (radians)','fontsize',10)
ylabel('Displacement','fontsize',10)
title('Piecwise functions','fontsize',10)

I was trying to plot a graph that follows these guidlens but I'm not even able to run anything. And then I get an error in my function saying how "the vaule assigned to variable "y" might be unused. I honestly don't know what I'm doing wrong. Please guide me.

Are you the same person? Or maybe your classmate, we provided answers

Oh okay, thank you.

function y=displacement(theta)
y=zeros(1,length(theta));
for i=1:length(theta)
if theta(i)>=0 & theta(i)<= pi/2
    y(i)=6*(2*theta(i)-0.5*sin(theta(i)));
elseif theta(i)>= pi/2 & theta(i)<= 2*pi/3
    y(i)=6;
elseif theta(i)>= 2*pi/3 & theta(i)<= 4*pi/3
    y(i)=6-3*abs(1-0.5*cos(3*theta(i)-2*pi));
elseif theta(i)>= 4*pi/3 & theta(i)<= 3*pi/2
    y(i)=3;
elseif theta(i)>= 3*pi/2 & theta(i)<= 7*pi/4
    y(i)=3-1.5*((theta(i)-3*pi)/(pi/4))^2;
elseif theta(i)>= 7*pi/4 && theta(i)<= 2*pi
    y(i)=0.75-0.75*(1-((theta(i)-(7*pi/4))/(pi/4)))^2;
end
end 

Save above code as function file named as displacement.m (MATLAB File) and call the function from another script

theta=linspace(0,2*pi,500);
y=displacement(theta);
plot(theta,y,'r','Linewidth',2)
grid on;
legend({'displacement(theta)'},'fontsize',10)
xlabel('Theta (radians)','fontsize',10)
ylabel('Displacement','fontsize',10)
title('Piecwise functions','fontsize',10)
