SETPRINTLIMIT Set Limit For Printing Of Arrays

Section: Input/Ouput Functions

Usage

Changes the limit on how many elements of an array are printed using either the disp function or using expressions on the command line without a semi-colon. The default is set to one thousand elements. You can increase or decrease this limit by calling 
  setprintlimit(n)

where n is the new limit to use.

Example

Setting a smaller print limit avoids pages of output when you forget the semicolon on an expression. 
--> A = randn(512);
--> setprintlimit(10)
--> A

ans =
