To open the Workspace browser, select Workspace from the Desktop menu in the MATLAB desktop, or type workspace at the Command Window prompt.
Viewing and Editing Values in the Current Workspace
The Workspace browser shows the name of each variable, its value, its array size, its size in bytes, and the class. The icon for each variable denotes its class.
To resize the columns of information, drag the column header borders. To show or hide any of the columns, or to specify the sort order, select View -> Choose Columns.
You can select the column on which to sort as well as reverse the sort order of any column. Click a column heading to sort on that column. Click the column heading again to reverse the sort order in that column. For example, to sort on Name, click the column heading once. To change from ascending to descending, click the heading again. You cannot sort by the Value column in the Workspace browser.
You can edit values directly in the Workspace browser Value column. To edit a value, select the row to change in the Value column and type in the new value.
Function Alternative
Use who to list the current workspace variables. Use whos to list the variables and information about their size and class. For example:
who
Your variables are:
A M S V
whos
Name Size Bytes Class
A 1x4 32 double array
M 3x1 202 cell array
S 1x2 598 struct array
V 1x35 70 char array
Grand total is 76 elements using 902 bytes
Use exist to see if the specified variable is in the workspace.
