This section contains detailed descriptions of all of the functions of user interest in the System Identification Toolbox. It begins with a list of functions grouped by subject area and continues with the entries in alphabetical order. Information is also available through the on-line Help facility. By typing a function name without arguments, you also get immediate syntax help about its arguments for most functions For ease of use, most functions have several default arguments. The Syntax first lists the function with the necessary input arguments and then with all the possible input arguments. The functions can be used with any number of arguments between these extremes. The rule is that missing, trailing arguments are given default values, as defined in the manual. Default values are also obtained by entering the arguments as the empty matrix [ ]. MATLAB does not require that you specify all of the output arguments; those not specified are not returned. For functions with several output arguments in the System Identification Toolbox, missing arguments are, as a rule, not computed, in order to save time.
