  statlim - Set or return a string with the current limits

  2.  SYNOPSIS

  [lim, str] = statlim(mode, lim, vars, stat )

  3.  DESCRIPTION

  Set, update or display the current limits used for statistics. The
  limit array is described in stat(5m).

  4.  PARAMETERS

     mode
        Mode for updating limit array. If mode is -1,the limits for the
        variables specified in vars are set to [-Inf,+Inf,0]. If mode is
        0,the limits for the variables specified in vars are set to
        [min,max,1],where min and max are taken from the statistics
        array stat. If mode is +1,the limits are set to the specified
        values listed in vars,in which case vars is an array with the
        following columns:

        1. variable number

        2. minimal value

     vars optional
        If mode is -1 or 0,vars is a vector with the line indexes to the
        variables whose limits should be updated. If mode is +1,it is an
        array as described above. If empty,the limit array is returned
        as is together with the limit string.

     stat
        This parameter is required if mode is 0.
