hi, i think this question has been asked before, the reason is that the K-means algorithm starts with random partition so every time you run the code, you get the same result but with different RMSE.
(try to clear the Workspace and re-run ...)

Could you indicate
size(repmat(minc, nsamp, 1))
size( bsxfun(@times, (0:nsamp-1).', (maxc - minc) ./
(nsamp-1)) )

An option is to reset the random number generator to its initial state every time before running your code:
rng default % ->This is the important bit
X = [randn(100,2)+ones(100,2);...
randn(100,2)-ones(100,2)];
opts = statset('Display','final');
[idx,ctrs] = kmeans(X,2,...
'Distance','city',...
'Replicates',5,...
'Options',opts);
This will always produce the same result, but it sorts of beat the purpose of the function and might produce bad results.

For example:
X = [randn(100,2)+ones(100,2);...
randn(100,2)-ones(100,2)];
opts = statset('Display','final');
[idx,ctrs] = kmeans(X,2,...
'Distance','city',...
'Replicates',1,...
'Options',opts,...
'start',[0.25 0.25; 0.75 0.75]);
But that does not guarantee that the result will always be the same.
