The M-Lint Code Check Report displays potential errors and problems, as well as opportunities for improvement in your M-files. The term lint is used by similar tools in other programming languages such as C.
Access the M-Lint Code Check Report and other reports from the
Current Folder browser. From the Actions button
, select Reports.
You run a report for all files in the current folder.

The M-Lint Code Check Report displays a message for each line of an M-file it determines might be improved. For example, a common M-Lint message is that a variable is defined but never used in the M-file.

Alternatively, you can use automatic M-Lint code checking to view M-Lint messages while you work on a file in the Editor. You can also use the mlint function to get results for a single M-file.
For More Information See Tuning and Managing M-Files and Checking M-File Code for Problems Using the M-Lint Code Analyzer in the MATLAB Desktop Tools and Development Environment documentation, and the reference page for the mlint function. |
The MATLAB Profiler helps you improve the performance of your M-files. Run a MATLAB statement or an M-file in the Profiler and it produces a report of where the time is being spent. Access the Profiler from the Desktop menu, or use the profile function.

For More Information See Tuning and Managing M-Files in the MATLAB Desktop Tools and Development Environment documentation, and the reference page for the profile function. |
