What does '& ...' mean in Matlab?

I am new here and I don't know this expression: '& ...'. Can anyone explain?
I googled it but could not find an answer. Thanks.

&... is not an expression. & can be used as logical "and" operator
Example
a=10
b=20
a==10 & b==2
is equivalent to
and(a==10,b==2)
$ can be used otherwise in different situations

You didn't give the whole line but my guess is that someone is doing a logical operation and is using ... to continue the operation on the next line. For example instead of doing
results = thisVariable & thatVariable;
they're putting it on 2 lines like this:
results = thisVariable & ...
thatVariable;
That's just a guess, Jennifer, as to what it could be. I can't know for sure because you forgot to include the line(s) of code.
