Error using imagesci\private\readjpg Too many input arguments.

Hi all what erorr in this code ?

function hide_image(src_img,varargin)
% Hide Image : This code hides image(s) inside one larger image.
%
% Syntax: hide_image(source_image_file_name,images_filenames_to_be_hidden)
%
% Examples:
% 
% >> hide_image('pano.jpg','map1.bmp','faces.bmp');
% Used 74.3117 percent of the source image. Embedded Image saved as : 'embedded.png' in the current directory.
%
% >> hide_image('pano.jpg','map1.bmp','faces.bmp','house.jpg');
% Used 93.7543 percent of the source image. Embedded Image saved as : 'embedded.png' in the current directory.
% 
% Error will be reported with stats:
% >> hide_image('pano.jpg','map1.bmp','faces.bmp','house.jpg','carey.jpg');
% ??? Error using ==> hide_image at ..

You have

a=double(imread('pano.jpg','map1.bmp','faces.bmp'));

It is not possible to read multiple different files with the same imread() call.

(There are some file formats for which it is permitted to read multiple images that are stored in the same file.)

That not good answer

[Walter Roberson]

a=double(imread('pano.jpg','map1.bmp','faces.bmp'));

Tries to read three images at the same time. That is not permitted.

The code tries to find the size of rows and columns of the three images, but you already read the images and got their size
