+- New dictionary functions: `configureDictionary`, `lookup`, `insert`, `remove`
+- New `mustBeSparse` validation function
+- New `resize`, `paddata` and `trimdata` functions for changing the size of
+  data by adding or removing elements
+- New `smoothdata2` function for smoothing noisy data in two dimensions
+- New `kde` function for estimating a probability function by using kernel density estimation for univariate data
+- New syntax for the `rng` and `tallrng` functions where only the algorithm is
+  specified (but not the seed, which then defaults to zero)
+- The `readstruct` and `writestruct` functions can now manipulate JSON files
+- New `cmdsep` function which returns the (shell) command separator for the
+  current platform
+- New `expmv` function for computing a matrix exponential multiplied by a
+  vector
+- New `piechart` and `donutchart` functions for creating configurable,
+  interactive pie and donut charts

+  of legend entries
+- New `xscale`, `yscale` and `zscale` functions for quickly change between
+  logarithmic and linear axes scales after plotting
+- New `xsecondarylabel`, `ysecondarylabel`, and `zsecondarylabel` functions for
+  creating, deleting, or modifying secondary axis labels
+- New `xregion` and `yregion` functions for creating unbounded regions and
+  specifying multiple regions as matrix
