editor in matlab

in my book they say:

start qoute:

>>mystr='how are you; ???mystr='how are you;

Error: A MATLAB string constant is not terminated properly

If this type of error is typed in a script or function using the Editor, the Editor will flag it.

end qoute

What is the editor is it simply the window where you write scripts or functions?

Yes, unless you prepare your scripts and functions outside of the MATLAB environment.
