Calling Tree

Function creates tree structure of funtion calls in m-file.

You are now following this Submission

This function will create a tree structure containing all function calls in the m-file given as input. The function will automatically also search the called m-files.
Function that call themselves will not create infinite loops.
You can set the 'search area', f.i. the function will only search through m-files in '.\work\'.

Call:
struct = calling_tree(filename, restriction)
where restriction can just be 'work', it does not have to be the entire path.
restriction = '' means: no restriction

Example:
struct = calling_tree('calling_tree', '')

A good way to view the structure is the recently updated display_structure function (also by me) which can be found on this site. It will expand all sub-structures automatically.
