 A Matlab **script** is simply a list of Matlab commands in a plain-text (ASCII) file with a ''​.m''​ filename extension. If you **call** or **execute** the script by its name at the Matlab prompt //without the .m extension//,​ Matlab will read the file and execute the commands sequentially. For example, here is a Matlab script that will make a plot of $\sin x$ and $\cos x$, complete with labeled axes and a legend. A Matlab **script** is simply a list of Matlab commands in a plain-text (ASCII) file with a ''​.m''​ filename extension.
