How to find the functions called by another function

if any Matlab function is calling say 100 functions
Is there any short cut to find the functions called by a specific function? with out going through the entire code.
and any shortcut to find out the functions calling a specific function?

you can check in reverse order.Place break point in function and then check call stack(use command dbstack) and you will get data in form of structure.

In a reverse way, if for a function, I want to make minor different resonse based on who calling it( the upper function),how to get the function name calling it? This is something like the function know if it is compiled by "x = isdeployed "

I would try using the profile function. You can either acess the Profiler under the Desktop (Desktop->Profiler) on the menu.
See depfun()
The IDE (integrated development environment) has a specific menu item at the top to run the analysis of what is called.

depfun() is giving all the pre-defined functions but not the user defined functions. I want the list of user-defined functions
