%     which uses caller workspace and returns if some input variables do
%     not exist

% Find variables in caller workspace
wh = evalin('caller','who');

% Check that variables exist in caller workspace
if (isempty(wh) & ~isempty(varargin)) | (~all(ismember(varargin,wh)))

% Remove variables in the "keep" list
del = setdiff(wh,varargin);

% Nothing to remove - return

% Construct the clearing command string
str=sprintf('%s ',del{:});

% Clear
evalin('base',['clear ' str])
