12.1 Routine Naming

The routine’s filename follows the format NAME.m, where NAME is the name of the routine, and .m is the filename extension.

Routine naming rules are as follows:

• Routine names must begin with an upper- or lower-case letter, or a % sign
• Within the routine name, you may have upper-case or lower-case letters or digits
• The entire routine name must not be longer than 255 characters

Routines whose names begin with % must be located in the SYSTEM namespace. Other routines may be located in any namespace.
