dbstack [ST,I] = dbstack
dbstack
displays the line numbers and M-file names of the function calls that led to the current breakpoint, listed in the order in which they were executed. In other words, the line number of the most recently executed function call (at which the current breakpoint occurred) is listed first, followed by its calling function, which is followed by its calling function, and so on, until the topmost M-file function is reached.
[ST,I] = dbstack
returns the stack trace information in an m-by-1 structure ST with the fields:
name function name
line function line number
The current workspace index is returned in I.
