Citing Files from the File Exchange

Authored by the MATLAB and Simulink user community on the MATLAB Wiki.

How does one cite files downloaded from the File Exchange?

If you need to cite a file from the File Exchange, use this approach, which is modeled on the Wikipedia standard for citing websites (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_sources/example_style#Web_sites_and_articles_.28not_from_periodicals).

In clear text:
