Inputs

• vreturn: ['release' | {'version'} | 'long'] dictates style of version to return. 'release' uses "R" format (e.g. 12, 13, 14, or 15). 'version' uses "ver" format (e.g. 6.5, 7.0, 7.2). 'long' returns "ver" format with versions past first decimal appended to 4 sig figs (e.g., '6.5.0.180913a (R13)' becomes 6.5018 OR '7.4.0.287 (R2007a)' becomes 7.4029)
