## 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 =

     Columns 1 to 8

       -0.2911   -2.2394    0.7388    0.4197    0.4382   -0.1399    0.9364   -1.8721
        0.6263    0.5764
    Print limit has been reached.  Use setprintlimit function to enable longer printouts
    --> setprintlimit(1000)
