11.10.2.3 Sections

A section is started by typing ‘##’ or ‘%%’ at the beginning of a new line. A section title can be provided by writing it, separated by a space, in the first line after ‘##’ or ‘%%’. Without a section title, the section is interpreted as a continuation of the previous section. For MATLAB compatibility ‘%%%’ is treated the same way as ‘%%’.
