Let's say I have a tex file, say MWE.tex, whose content is
\documentclass[11pt]{report}
\RequirePackage{amssymb, amsfonts, amsmath, latexsym, verbatim, xspace, setspace}
\RequirePackage{tikz, pgflibraryplotmarks}
\usepackage[margin=1in]{geometry}
\begin{document}
In this report we use x = VARX and y = VARY.
\end{document}
I would like to open in MATLAB, substitute VARX and VARY with values that come from some functions and save them in another .tex file. For instance VARX is the result of randi(10) and VARY is the result of randi(5).
What's the simplest solution to do this?
Would it also be possible to launch the latex compiler from Matlab? How?
