# Commands and Functions

This section of the guide contains a description of the operators in MATLAB, followed by detailed descriptions of all MATLAB commands and functions, in alphabetical order. Online help is also available - if you execute help on one of the function names, MATLAB displays an abbreviated version of the reference entry.

Each reference entry contains a purpose, synopsis, description, examples, algorithm, references, and other entries to see.
