Command Window and Command History
Command Window
Use the Command Window to enter variables and to run functions
and M-file scripts.
Press the up arrow key ↑ to recall a statement you previously
typed. Edit the statement as needed, and then press Enter to
run it. For more information about entering statements in the Command
Window, see Controlling Command Window Input and Output.
There are other tools available to help you remember functions
and their syntax, and to enter statements correctly. For example,
to look for functions, use the Function Browser to look for functions—click
the
button at the left of
the prompt to open the tool. For more information on ways to get help
while you work in the Command Window, see Assistance While Entering Statements.

Command History
Statements you enter in the Command Window are logged in the
Command History. From the Command History, you can view and search
for previously run statements, as well as copy and execute selected
statements. You can also create an M-file from selected statements.
To save the input and output from a MATLAB session to a
file, use the diary function.
