Viewing the Current Workspace

The Workspace browser shows the name of each variable, its array size, its size in bytes, and the class. The icon for each variable denotes its class.

To resize the columns of information, drag the column header borders. To show or hide any of the columns, or to specify the sort order, select Workspace View Options from the View menu.

Function Alternative.   Use who to list the current workspace variables. Use whos to list the variables and information about their size and class. For example:

who
    Your variables are:
    A         M         S         v 

whos
    Name      Size         Bytes  Class
    A         4x4            128  double array
    M         8x1           2368  cell array
    S         1x1            398  struct array
    v         5x9             90  char array
    Grand total is 286 elements using 2984 bytes

Use the exist function to see if the specified variable is in the workspace.
