methods - Class method names

Syntax

methods('classname')
methods(...,'-full')
m = methods(...)

Description

methods('classname') displays the names of the methods for the class classname. If classname is a MATLAB or Java class, then methods displays only public methods, including those methods inherited from superclasses.

methods(...,'-full') displays a full description of the methods, including inheritance information and, for MATLAB and Java methods, method attributes and signatures. methods does not remove duplicate method names with different signatures. Do not use this option with classes defined before MATLAB 7.6.

m = methods(...) returns the method names in a cell array of strings.

methods is also a MATLAB class-definition keyword. See classdef for more information on class-definition keywords.
