This is clearly a homework assignment. You also haven't asked a question.
Show us what you've got and ask a specific question about the step where you're stuck. Don't ask people to do your homework for you.

x ='some text here with a and an and the';
% you can use "lower" to convert it into lower case
%
% consider "split" to split the string into words with appropriate
% delimiters
%
% consider "ismember" to test the split words belong to "a" "an" and "the"
% idx = ~ismember(splitwords, {'a', 'an', 'the'})
% "sum" up idx to get the number of words
% n = sum(idx)

Instead of handeling upper and lower cases separately, force the text to be upper or lower case.
Example:
x = 'A thesis is an example of The Program';
lower(x)
upper(x)
Use Chunru's advice to split the sentence into words and use ismember to determine which words match the exclusion list (a,an,the). The list should match the case you choose.

x = 'A thesis is an example of The Program';
x = lower(x)
splitwords = split(x, {' ', '.', ',', ':', '?', '!'})
