+% Two percent signs denote the start of a new code section
+% Individual code sections can be run by moving the cursor to the section followed by
+% either clicking the "Run Section" button
+% or     using Ctrl+Shift+Enter (Windows) or Cmd+Shift+Return (OS X)

+%% This is the start of a code section
+%  One way of using sections is to separate expensive but unchanging start-up code like loading data
+load myFile.mat y
+
+%% This is another code section
+%  This section can be edited and run repeatedly on its own, and is helpful for exploratory programming and demos
+A = A * 2;
+plot(A);

 % commands can span multiple lines, using '...':
  a = 1 + 2 + ...
