I depends on what your needs are.  There are exceptions, but generally, it
is better to suppress internal results.

One would define the function as

  o = function f(i)
     o = ...;
  endfunction

and invoke the function as

  f(3)

or as

  f(3);

so that the output is controlled by the calling function.
