I imagine cwk is the name of a variable.
"ceil" is the ceiling function, which takes the smallest integer greater than or equal to a number. For example, ceil(3) = 3 and ceil(3.1) = 4.
randn(1,50) takes a random number between 1 and 50 (not necessarily an integer, hence the need for the ceil)
I'd hope that + and * are obvious.
So all in all, "cwk = ceil(randn(1,50)*15+55);" gives , where is a random number between 1 and 50.

Typo I presume but I think you mean that n is a number between 1 and 50, as opposed to between 1 and 55.
Yup.

just to establish:
cwk = ceil(randn(2,397)*185+12)
would be (185n+12) where n is a rnadom number between 2 and 397?

Yes.
