tell a joke in matlab

Here's a silly joke in MATLAB:

main.m
a = 'Why do programmers confuse Halloween with Christmas?';
disp(a)
pause(2.5)
b = 'Because Oct 31 equals Dec 25.'
disp(b)
123 chars
6 lines

When you run the code, it will output the question and pause for a few seconds before revealing the punchline in the second output.
