-The warning message is printed using the //formatted print function// ''​fprintf''​. ''​fprintf''​ takes a variable number of arguments. The first argument is always the ''​format string''​. The format string is simply a message to be printed with a number of slots into which values of variables will be substituted. The slots are marked with percent signs ''​%'',​ and following the percents signs is a letter code that tells Matlab what type of variable to expect for the slot. Here ''​%d''​ tells Matlab to expect a decimal-valued variable (i.e. a floating-point number). ​+The warning message is printed using the //formatted print function// ''​fprintf''​.
