SAVE  SAVE Save Variables To A File


Usage
 
 Saves a set of variables to a file in a machine independent format.
 There are two formats for the function call.  The first is the explicit
 form, in which a list of variables are provided to write to the file:
 
   save filename a1 a2 ...
 
 In the second form,
 
   save filename
 
 all variables in the current context are written to the file.  The 
 format of the file is a simple binary encoding (raw) of the data
 with enough information to restore the variables with the load
 command.  The endianness of the machine is encoded in the file, and
 the resulting file should be portable between machines of similar
 types (in particular, machines that support IEEE floating point 
 representation).
 
 You can also specify both the filename as a string, in which case
 you also have to specify the names of the variables to save.  In
 particular
 
    save('filename','a1','a2')
 
 will save variables a1 and a2 to the file.
 
 Starting with version 2.0, FreeMat can also read and write MAT
 files (the file format used by MATLAB) thanks to substantial 
 work by Thomas Beutlich.  Support for MAT files
 is still in the alpha stages, so please be cautious with using
 it to store critical data.  Also, things like objects wont be
 saved properly, as will variables that dont exist in MATLAB
 such as single-precision sparse types.  The file format is triggered
 by the extension.  To save files with a MAT format, simply
 use a filename with a ".mat" ending.
