Logical (Boolean) Operations

`&`	Element-wise logical AND operator.
`all`	Tests whether all elements are nonzero (true).
`any`	Tests whether any element is nonzero (true).
`find`	Finds the indices of nonzero elements.
`logical`	Converts values to logical true or false.
`Short-Circuit &&`	Short-circuit logical AND: the second operand is evaluated only if needed.
`Short-Circuit \|\|`	Short-circuit logical OR: the second operand is evaluated only if needed.
`xor`	Logical exclusive OR.
`\|`	Element-wise logical OR operator.
`~`	Logical NOT operator.

Arithmetic Operations

`'`	Complex conjugate transpose operator.
`*`	Matrix multiplication operator.
`+`	Addition operator: adds numbers, arrays and other values element by element.
`-`	Subtraction and negation operator.
`.'`	Transpose operator without conjugation.
`.*`	Element-wise multiplication operator.
`./`	Element-wise right division operator.
`.\`	Element-wise left division operator.
`.^`	Element-wise power operator.
`/`	Right division operator: a / b divides, or solves x*B = A for matrices.
`\`	Left division operator: solves the linear system A*x = B.
`^`	Matrix power operator.
`bsxfun`	Applies a binary function with implicit expansion of singleton dimensions.
`ceil`	Rounds toward positive infinity.
`cumprod`	Cumulative product of array elements.
`cumsum`	Cumulative sum of array elements.
`diff`	Differences between adjacent elements.
`fix`	Rounds toward zero, discarding the fractional part.
`floor`	Rounds toward negative infinity.
`idivide`	Integer division with a chosen rounding rule.
`mod`	Remainder after division, with the sign of the divisor (modulo).
`movsum`	Moving sum over a sliding window.
`pagectranspose`	Conjugate-transposes each page of an N-D array.
`pagemldivide`	Solves linear systems page by page, A \ B for each page.
`pagemrdivide`	Right division page by page, A / B for each page.
`pagemtimes`	Matrix multiplication page by page for N-D arrays.
`pagetranspose`	Transposes each page of an N-D array.
`prod`	Product of array elements.
`rem`	Remainder after division, with the sign of the dividend.
`round`	Rounds to the nearest integer, or to a given number of digits.
`tensorprod`	Tensor product and contraction of arrays along chosen dimensions.
`uminus`	Unary minus: changes the sign of each element.
`uplus`	Unary plus: returns its argument, with the numeric conversion of an operation.

Relational Operations

`<`	Less-than operator: tests element by element whether A is smaller than B.
