I need help with this matlab problem. I have attached my current code. The deflection y of a sailboat mast subjected to a wind force

I need help with this matlab problem. I have attached my current code.
The deflection y of a sailboat mast subjected to a wind force can be modeled with the following differential equation:
d2ydz2=f(z)2EI(L-z)2
where z is the position along the mast starting from 0 at the base. The function f(z) is the force of the wind transferred to the mast by the sail and can be modeled as
f(z)=200z5+ze-2z30
parameter L is the length of the mast.
Write a MATLAB function P2_odesolve that will solve for deflection y(z) and the slope dydz given that the deflection and the slope are both equal to 0 at the base of the mast with the following outputs (in given order):
Solutions using Euler's method as a 2-column matrix (store solution for deflection y(z) in the first column and the solution for slope dydz in the second column)
Solutions using Heun's method (without corrector iteration) as a 2-column matrix (store solution for deflection y(z) in the first column and the solution for slope dydz in the second column)
Solutions using Midpoint method as a 2-column matrix (store solution for deflection y(z) in the first column and the solution for slope dydz in the second column)
with the following input
vector defining the span of the mast with intial and final position values (12 row vector)
initial value vector for the deflection and the slope (12 row vector)

1 function [yE,yH,yM]=P2 odesolve(zspan,y0,h)

Code to call your function (8)
My code:
function [yE, yH, yM]= P2_odesolve(zspan, y0, h)
% Constants
E =1.3e9;
I =0.05;
L = zspan(2)- zspan(1);
% Number of steps
N = round((zspan(2)- zspan(1))/ h);
% Initialize solution matrices
yE = zeros(N+1,2);
yH = zeros(N+1,2);
yM = zeros(N+1,2);
% Initial conditions
yE(1, :) = y0;
yH(1, :) = y0;
yM(1, :) = y0;
% Function for f(z)
f = @(z)((200* z)/(5+ z))* exp(-2* z /30);
% Euler's Method
for n =1:N
z = zspan(1)+(n-1)* h;
y = yE(n,1);
v = yE(n,2);
yE(n+1,1)= y + h * v;
yE(n+1,2)= v + h *(f(z)/(2* E * I *(L - z)^2));
end
% Heun's Method
for n =1:N
z = zspan(1)+(n-1)* h;
y = yH(n,1);
v = yH(n,2);
% Predictor step
y_star = y + h * v;
v_star = v + h *(f(z)/(2* E * I *(L - z)^2));
% Corrector step
yH(n+1,1)= y +(h /2)*(v + v_star);
yH(n+1,2)= v +(h /2)*((f(z)/(2* E * I *(L - z)^2))+(f(z + h)/(2* E * I *(L -(z + h))^2)));
end
% Midpoint Method
for n =1:N
z = zspan(1)+(n-1)* h;
y = yM(n,1);
v = yM(n,2);
% Midpoint step
y_mid = y +(h /2)* v;
v_mid = v +(h /2)*(f(z)/(2* E * I *(L - z)^2));
% Full step
yM(n+1,1)= y + h * v_mid;
yM(n+1,2)= v + h *(f(z + h /2)/(2* E * I *(L -(z + h /2))^2));
end
