Yes, if you search the File Exchange, you’ll find SWAP, which was inspired by the file featured here:

Quan,

Excellent suggestion. You probably tried this, but don’t forget about searching the MATLAB File Exchange.

Hello Michael,

Whenever I need to find a particular function, I usually try to guess the function name


help *******

and hope that I get lucky. Or if I know that the function that I want to use is related to a function that I already know, I try to find that function by means of association.

Usually a google search is the best way for me to find a function that I am unfamiliar with. Just today I was looking for a “swap variables” function because I was too lazy to write my own, although I wasn’t able to find it :(
