I am to Write a function called valid_date that takes three positive integer scalar inputs year, month, day. If these three represent a valid date, return a logical true, otherwise false. The name of the output argument is valid. If any of the inputs is not a positive integer scalar, return false as well. Here is the code i have tried but keeps returning true for all dates, I have editted it a lot and now i just need a fresh eye to point out what i am doing wrong:
NB: I am not to use any built in MatLab function.
function valid = valid_date (year, month, date)
if (nargin==3)
valid=true;
elseif (isinteger(year)) && year>0 && (isscalar(year))
valid=true;
elseif (isinteger(month))&& month>0 && month <=12 && (isscalar(month))
valid=true;
elseif (isinteger(date)) && date > 0 && (isscalar(date))
valid=true;
elseif (month==1||month==3||month==5||month==7||month==8||month==10||month==12)&& date<=31
valid=true;
elseif date <=30
valid=true;
elseif (isinteger(year/4)) && month == 2 && (~(isinteger(year/100))||(isinteger(year/400))) && date <= 29
valid=true;
else
valid = false;
end

"so what can i use in place of isinteger"
Take a look at this answer you were given six hours ago:
Does it use isinteger? (hint: no)
What does it use? (hint: mod)
Also read my comment following that answer.

function isvalid = valid_date(y, m, d)
% Check if the inputs are valid
% Check that they are scalars
if ~(isscalar(y) && isscalar(m) && isscalar(d))
isvalid = false;
% Check that inputs are positive
elseif ~all([y, m, d] > 0)
isvalid = false;
% Check that inputs are integers (not the data type)

Hi,
You can try the following function and see if it works for you:
function valid = valid_date(year, month, date)
if(nargin ~= 3)
valid = false;
elseif (~(mod(year,1)==0) || (year<0) || ~isscalar(year))
valid = false;
elseif (~(mod(month,1)==0) || (month<=0) || (month>12) || ~isscalar(month))
valid = false;
elseif (~(mod(date,1)==0) || (date<=0) || ~isscalar(date))
valid = false;
elseif( (month==1||month==3||month==5||month==7||month==8||month==10||month==12)&& date>31 )
valid = false;
elseif ((month==4||month==6||month==9||month==11) && date>30)
valid = false;
elseif(~leapyear(year) && month==2 && date>28)
valid=false;
elseif(leapyear(year) && month==2 && date>29)
valid=false;
else
valid = true;
end

Anil Muradiya which code are you finding is failing, and what inputs are you finding that it is failing on?

What will your code return if nargin is not 3?
if max((month==m31)')==1
Hint: any()
