How to access parameters from an anonymous function from another function

I have the anonym function getPLocalTransition. It has x as one of its parameters.

I have another function dir; I try to call x from the function dir but get error:

Unrecognized function or variable 'x'.

getPLocalTransition = @(localCoordinate) ...
    pTransition(localCoordinate(1) + 3, localCoordinate(2) + 3);
localCoordinate(1)=1;
localCoordinate(2)=1;
x=localCoordinate;
pTransition(x(1) + 3, x(2) + 3);
function dir = get_direction(x_t, u_t, x_tm1)
......
pTransition(x);
end

In function "get_direction" there is no variable with the name "x" (at least if it is not created in the ...... section).

Thanks. So if I want to call it from get_direction I have to declare it there?

Yes, or you use the concept of a nested function:

"...if I want to call it from get_direction I have to declare it there?"

Either pass it as an input argument or turn it into a nested function.
