save_to_base() copies variables in the workspace of the calling function to the base workspace. This makes it possible to examine a function's internal variables from the Matlab command prompt after the calling function terminates.

If the optional argument "overwrite" is present and has a non-zero value, variables in the workspace of the caller will overwrite variables in the base workspace having the same name. Otherwise, preexisting variables in the base workspace will not be overwritten.
