What does 'regstats' mean in this example?

[b, dev, regstats] = glmfit(...)

Is regstats a function or something else? I'm not sure what it does here, exactly.

[dpb]

See the doc first...

[b,dev,stats] = glmfit(...) returns dev and stats.

stats is a structure with the following fields:

• beta — Coefficient estimates b
• dfe — Degrees of freedom for error
• sfit — Estimated dispersion parameter
• s — Theoretical or estimated dispersion parameter
• estdisp — 0 when the 'estdisp' name-value pair argument value is 'off' and 1 when the 'estdisp' name-value pair argument value is 'on'.
• covb — Estimated covariance matrix for B
• se — Vector of standard errors of the coefficient estimates b
• coeffcorr — Correlation matrix for b
• t — t statistics for b
• p — p-values for b
• resid — Vector of residuals
• residp — Vector of Pearson residuals
• residd — Vector of deviance residuals
• resida — Vector of Anscombe residuals

MATLAB syntax doesn't allow anything but return variables on LHS of an assignment.

Thank you so much!
