clear
kills variables
Calling Sequence
clear a b c clear('a', 'b', 'c') clear(['a' 'b' 'c'])
Arguments
- a, b, c...
variables of any type and size, but not protected
Description
This command kills variables which are not protected.
It removes the named variables from the environment.
By itself clear
kills all the variables except the variables
protected by predef
. Thus the two commands predef(0)
and clear
remove all the variables.
Normally, protected variables are standard libraries and variables with the percent prefix.
Note the particular syntax clear a and clear('a')
and not clear(a) . Note also that a=[] does not kill
a but sets a to an empty matrix. |
The command clear
can kill nonexistent variables, i. e.
clear
kills nonexistent variables as if they exist.
