I often use a simple and easy method of stopping functions.It is easiest and cleanest if you are say reading in a loop or something like that.
Example:
PAUSE_FILE='pause.txt';
while condition
%"do some stuff"
if exist(PAUSE_FILE,'file')
delete(PAUSE_FILE);
keyboard;
end
end
When you want to pause your program you simply create an empty txt file called "pause.txt" in the current matlab folder,and when you want to continue you can just type
K>>return
in the matlab command prompt when you want to continue. I like it because the best way is often to keep it as simple as possible and you have full control over where you program pauses.
Hope it helps =)
