| Begin with Existing Code | Use code resources such as your Command Window and
History, and existing M-files, demos, and examples. |
| Ways to Edit, Evaluate, and Debug M-Files | Use the MATLAB® Editor for M-files or any text file.
Or use another editor you have, along with debugging functions in
the Command Window. |
| Starting, Customizing, and Closing the Editor | Create and open files, arrange document windows, and
set preferences. |
| Entering Statements in the Editor | Changing case, undo and redo, comments, tab completion.
Also use features common to the Command Window for entering statements. |
| Appearance of an M-File — Making Files More Readable | Syntax highlighting, indenting, line and column numbers,
highlighting, and more. |
| Navigating in an M-File | Go to a line number, function, bookmark, back and
forward, and open a selection. |
| Finding Text in Files | Find and replace text in the current file or multiple
files. Incremental search tool. |
| Comparing Files and Directories | View differences between two files or two directories. |
| Keyboard Shortcuts in the Editor | Use the keyboard to navigate in or perform other common
actions in a file. |
| Saving, Printing, and Closing Files in the Editor | Save and autosave features, printing and page setup,
and closing files. |
| Running M-Files in the Editor | Running M-files from the Editor, with no input arguments
or with input arguments |
| Finding Errors, Debugging, and Correcting M-Files | Automatically analyze code using M-Lint to find errors
and make improvements, and use debugging features to isolate run-time
problems. |
| M-Lint Code Analyzer | Check your code for problems and get recommendations
to maximize performance and maintainability. |
| Debugging Process and Features | Graphical debugging tools and functions for debugging
in the Command Window. |
| Using Cells for Rapid Code Iteration and Publishing Results | Define sections of your M-files as cells. Use cells
for publishing M-files to formats like HTML. Also use cells to experiment
and incrementally modify values in M-files. |
