Passing a function value to another function

To whom it may concern:
I am aware that there is documentation to support this question, I haven't been able to implement a simple solution that isn't beyond my abilities. I have a function that calculates the fluid height inside a reservoir. I would like to pass this value to another function where I define the fluid height as a constant. I need to keep two seperate function files, actualise_level and intialise_level. What might you suggest? Thanks
FIRST FUNCTION:
function [ reservoir ] = actualise_level( reservoir, vol_in, vol_out)
constants;
reservoir(VOLUME) = VOLUME + (vol_in - vol_out) * DT
if reservoir(VOLUME) < 0
reservoir(VOLUME) = reservoir(VOLUME) + abs(min(reservoir(VOLUME)))
end
x = sqrt(4*BASE_INF^2*HEIGHT^2+8*(((BASE_SUP-BASE_INF)*HEIGHT*VOLUME)./LENGTH)) y = 2*HEIGHT*BASE_INF
if x >= y
h1 = (x-y)./(2*(BASE_SUP-BASE_INF)) %h1 is the fluid level as calculated
else error('No solution')
end
end
SECOND FUNCTION:
function [ reservoir ] = initialise_reservoir()
constants;
reservoir = zeros(1,NB_PARAMETERS_RESERV);
reservoir(BASE_INF) = 5; reservoir(BASE_SUP) = 7.5; reservoir(HEIGHT) = 25; reservoir(LENGTH) = 5; reservoir(VOLUME) = 350; reservoir(LEVEL) = h1? %this is where I would like to pass the value in
reservoir = [reservoir(BASE_INF) reservoir(BASE_SUP) reservoir(HEIGHT) ... reservoir(LENGTH) reservoir(VOLUME) reservoir(LEVEL)];
end

You could write a script that calls each of the functions one or more times in the desired sequence, passing the output of one function as the input to the other function.

That's exactly what I am suggesting. Maybe you should try it before you simply reject it as inadequate.
