savezip utility
Matlab data can be serialized and saved into a ZIP/GZIP file, and loaded back.
Undocumented function
Undocumented feature list
A list of undocumented MATLAB features can be retrieved. Here's how...
Serializing/deserializing Matlab data
Matlab does not provide a documented manner to serialize data into a byte stream, but we can do this with some undocumented functionality.
sprintfc – undocumented helper function
The built-in sprintfc function can be used to quickly generate a cell-array of formatted strings.
Performance: accessing handle properties
Handle object property access (get/set) performance can be significantly improved using dot-notation.
Customizing the standard figure toolbar, menubar
The standard figure toolbar and menubar can easily be modified to include a list of recently-used files.
Pinning annotations to graphs
Annotation object can be programmatically set at, and pinned-to, plot axes data points.
Setting axes tick labels format
Matlab plot axes ticks can be customized in a way that will automatically update whenever the tick values change.
Profiling Matlab memory usage
mtic and mtoc were a couple of undocumented features that enabled users of past Matlab releases to easily profile memory usage.
Converting Java vectors to Matlab arrays
Converting Java vectors to Matlab arrays is pretty simple - this article explains how.
