type
filename
lists the specified file. Use pathnames and drive designators in the usual way for your operating system.
The type
command differs from the type
commands provided by operating systems in an important way: if a filename extension is not given, .m
is added by default. type
also checks the directories specified in MATLAB's search path. This makes it convenient for the most frequent use of type
, which is to list the contents of M-files on the screen.
type foo.bar
lists the file foo.bar
.
type foo
lists the file foo.m
.
