determine which function is calling what functions

hi everyone,

i wonder if there is any way in matlab to tetermine which function is called by witch. i got allredy 2500 lines of gui code and in order to clean up ( not to do the thame thing twice) it would be usefull to kno who is calling who and who is called by whome

thanks a lot

Do you want to find the calling stack during the computation or statically?

The function dbstack replies the calling stack. The profiler can create a history also, see doc profile.

thanks for ur answer,

i just want to know whos is calling who in general so i gues statically.

i just want to know if i am calling some functions more often than i have to.

im quiete new to matlab and programming in general so the older parts of the code are probally inefficiant ( or better : the old parts of the code ar more inaficiant than the newer one ;-) )
