As far as I am aware Matlab is sensible enough not to have such a command.

With this sort of question, it's a good idea to use correct terms. C does not have commands, it has statements and functions. There is also no jump statement or function in C.

C does have a goto statement. There is not equivalent in matlab (and most modern and not so modern languages) as this method of flow control has been replaced by much clearer and efficient concepts.

C also has setjmp, longjmp functions that are typically used for exception control. The equivalent in matlab would be a try, catch statement.
