Description The diary function creates a log of keyboard input and the resulting output
(except it does not include graphics). The output of diary is an ASCII file,
suitable for printing or for inclusion in reports and other documents. If you do
not specify filename, MATLAB creates a file named diary in the current
directory.

diary toggles diary mode on and off. To see the status of diary, type
get(0,'Diary'). MATLAB returns either on or off indicating the diary
status.
diary('filename') writes a copy of all subsequent keyboard input and the
resulting output (except it does not include graphics) to the named file. If the
file already exists, output is appended to the end of the file. You cannot use a
filename called off or on. To see the name of the diary file, use
get(0,'DiaryFile'). Type get(0,'DiaryName'), and MATLAB returns
filename.
diary off suspends the diary.
diary on resumes diary mode using the current filename, or the default
filename diary if none has yet been specified.
diary filename is the unquoted form of the syntax.
