DESCRIPTION
Left and right brackets are used for vector and matrix concatenation. These symbols are also used to denote a multiple left-hand-side for a function call

Inside concatenation brackets blank or comma characters mean "column concatenation", semicolumn and carriage-return mean "row concatenation".

Note : to avoid confusions it is safer to use comma instead of blank to separate columns.

Within multiple lhs brackets variable names must be separated by comma.
