Comparing Handle and Value Classes
Why Select Handle or Value
MATLAB support two kinds of classes — handle classes and value classes. The kind of class you use depends on the desired behavior of the class instances and what features you want to use. Read More

Specifying Class Precedence
InferiorClasses Attribute
You can specify the relative precedence of user-defined classes using the class InferiorClasses attribute. Assign a cell array of class names (represented as meta.class objects) to this attribute to specify classes that are inferior to the class you are defining. For example, the following classdef declares that myClass is dominant over class1 and class2. Read More

Scoping Classes with Packages
Package Folders
Packages are special folders that can contain class folders, function and class definition files, and other packages. Packages define a scope (sometimes called a namespace) for the contents of the package folder. This means function and class names need to be unique only within the package. Using a package provides a means to organize classes and functions and to select names for these components that other packages can reuse. Read More

Matlab Defining Classes — Syntax
classdef Syntax
Class definitions are blocks of code that are delineated by the classdef keyword at the beginning and the end keyword at the end. Files can contain only one classes definition. Read More

MATLAB User-Defined Classes
A MATLAB class definition is a template whose purpose is to provide a description of all the elements that are common to all instances of the class. Class members are the properties, methods, and events that define the class. Read More
