TITLE Plot Title Function

Section: Handle-Based Graphics

# Usage

This command adds a title to the plot. The general syntax for its use is

      title('label')

or in the alternate form

      title 'label'

or simply

      title label

Here `label` is a string variable. You can also specify properties for the label, and a handle to serve as a target for the operation

      title(handle,'label',properties...)

# Example

Here is an example of a simple plot with a title.

    --> x = linspace(-1,1);
    --> y = cos(2*pi*x);
    --> plot(x,y,'r-');
    --> title('cost over time');

which results in the following plot.

We now increase the size of the font using the properties of the `label`

    --> title('cost over time','fontsize',20);
