I didn't quite understand this, but I want to clarify that MATLAB uses
'end' and not 'END'.  The MATLAB help documenation is weird in that it
always shows commands and such in upper case even when upper case will not
work. In MATLAB:

>> x=rand(3)

x =

    0.2028    0.2722    0.7468
    0.1987    0.1988    0.4451
    0.6038    0.0153    0.9318

>> x(2,1:end)

ans =

    0.1987    0.1988    0.4451

>> x(2,1:END)
??? Undefined variable or capitalized internal function END; Caps Lock may be 
on.
