NAME
( ) - left and right parenthesis

CALLING SEQUENCE
(expression)
[...]=func(e1,e2,...)
x(i,j)
v(i)
[...]=l(i)

PARAMETERS

x   : matrix of any possible type

v   : row or column vector of any possible type

l   : list variable

func
    : any function or macro name

e1,e2,...
    : any possible type expression

DESCRIPTION
Left and right parenthesis are used to specify evaluation order within expressions, to form right-hand-side functions argument list and to select elements within matrices and lists.

Within multiple rhs arguments must be separated by comma.

For elements selection i, j, may be real scalar or vectors or then : symbol which stands for "all elements".

EXAMPLE
3^(-1)
(x+10)/2
i3=eye(3,3)
a=[1 2 3;4 5 6;7 8 9],a(1,3),a([1 3],:),a(:,3)
a(:,3)=[]
w=ssrand(2,2,2); w(:,1), ss2tf(w(:,1))
l=list(1,2,3,4)
[a,b,c,d]=l(:)
