Using the Help Browser

Use the Help browser to search and view documentation and demonstrations for MATLAB and your other MathWorks products. The Help browser is a Web browser integrated into the MATLAB desktop that displays HTML documents.

To open the Help browser, click the help button in the toolbar, or type helpbrowser in the Command Window. You can also access the Help browser by selecting Help from the View menu or by using the Help menu in any tool. The Help browser opens.

The Help browser consists of two panes:

• The Help Navigator, on the left, which you use to find information. It includes a Product Filter and Contents, Index, Search, Demos, and Favorites tabs. For more information, see Finding Information with the Help Browser.
• The display pane, on the right, which is for viewing documentation and demonstrations.
