- New `height` and `width` functions (can be used as a replacement for `rows` and `columns` that are present in Octave and that we reimplemented as missing functions; NB: the MATLAB documentation erroneously says that these functions were introduced in R2013b)
- New `pattern` and `extract` functions for string manipulation
- New `mustBe*` functions for input validation
- New `height` and `width` functions
- New `readstruct` and `writestruct` functions for reading/writing structured
data in XML files
- New `readlines` function to read a whole text file as a string array
