This example demonstrates how to use persistent variables when loading data in a function. Doing things this way guarantees that the "data" value in "persistentFunction" is only loaded or changed when necessary.
This is very useful in cases such as:
- "data" is large and loaded from a network location. Network locations are not as fast as locally saved data.
- The data is large and doesn't change much from call to call of "persistentFunction"

Better documentation.
Embedding of persistentFunction html still didn't work. Maybe it will work this time.
I had to hack the HTML because Mathworks doesn't render embeded iframe tags correctly. The persistentFunction HTML was put inline in the persistentExample
