Each value of M(x) for a value of x that you are trying to plot is a 1-element vector. You cannot plot that way.

If you extract that element, it should work. The simple remedy should be: append

[ORIGIN

to the M(x) in the plot, this 'll take the first (and only) element of the M(x) vector.

But a better way is to prevent getting vectors as results for M(x). I see that v(x) also produces arrays. Haven't tracked back further.

 

Success!
