How one can add title to the plot without using "TITLE" Command???? You cannot even use the figure GUI ?
Can anyone give me an answer?

What a stupid interview question! Why not use the tool that's specifically designed for the job?

Still, if you can use set, why can't you use title? It also can accept a handle and is less complex syntax.
title(gca,'Your title text')

Just reread the question -- guess I didn't follow before. Yes, "TITLE" is included as an option under the "Insert" menu item on figures.
