title: Jupyter Notebook with Matlab kernel
body: <p>I basically have a bunch of user-defined functions that I can run when I use Matlab, because I can specify the working directory. However when I use Jupyter Notebook those functions are undefined. How do I specify the working directory in this case?</p>
  
  <p>Either a permanent solution or a session solution is OK. However my preference is the session solution, so that I do not have to specify back the working directory all the time to its default value.</p>
