Calling Syntax
The “address_book_OpeningFcn” on page 9-8 code in address_book.m
interprets the input arguments:

• If you call the address_book function with no arguments, the UI displays the
  default address book.


• If you call the address_book function with a pair of arguments (for example,
  address_book('book','my_list.mat')) , the first argument, 'book', is a key
  word that the code looks for in the opening function. If the key word matches, the code
  uses the second argument as the MAT-file for the address book.
