It is possible to enter descriptive comments in a command input line starting them with the “%” sign. When you
run the input, MATLAB ignores the comment area and processes the rest.

To simplify the process of the introduction of scripts to be evaluated by the interpreter of MATLAB (via the
Command Window), you can use the arrow computer keys to access the command history. For example, if you press
the up arrow once, we recover the last entry submitted in MATLAB. If you press the key up twice, it recovers the
penultimate entry submitted, and so on.
If you type a sequence of characters in the
input
area and then click the up arrow, MATLAB recovers the last entry
that begins with the specified string.
Commands entered during a MATLAB session are temporarily stored in the buffer (
Workspace
) until you end the
session with the program, at which time they can be permanently stored in a file or you lose them permanently.
