SETPRINTLIMIT Set Limit For Printing Of Arrays

Section: Input/Ouput Functions

Usage

Changes the limit on how many elements of an array are printed using either the disp function or using expressions on the command line without a semi-colon. The default is set to one thousand elements. You can increase or decrease this limit by calling

  setprintlimit(n)

where n is the new limit to use.

Example

Setting a smaller print limit avoids pages of output when you forget the semicolon on an expression.

--> A = randn(512);
--> setprintlimit(10)
--> A

ans = 

 Columns 1 to 7

   -0.2514   -0.1353   -1.3148    1.7915   -0.4740   -1.6836   -0.2605 
   -0.6206   -0.6711   -0.4389
Print limit has been reached.  Use setprintlimit function to enable longer printouts
--> setprintlimit(1000)
