Comments
If expr is a scalar, the result is a scalar with a value of one.
If expr is a row vector, the result is {1, x},
where x is the number of elements of the row vector.
If expr is a column vector, the result is {x, 1},
where x is the number of elements of the vector.
If expr is a matrix, the result is {m, n}, where
m and n are the number of rows and columns,
respectively.
If expr is a string, the result is a scalar which is the number of characters in the string.
If expr is a string array, the result is a vector where each element is the number of characters in each corresponding element of the string array.
