Hi, I'm plotting 3 things. I want to make a box legend inside the plot but cant find the right way to do it, I want the third legend say:
CI = Ddata(1) +- 10%
The code is the next:
rango=10
legend('Original Data','CI=Ddata(1)',sprintf('CI = Ddata(1) \pm %.1e',rango),4);
It doesnt create the legend and give this on the Command Window:
Warning: Invalid escape sequence appears in format string. See help
sprintf for valid escape sequences.
Any help is appreciated.

Use:
\\pm % The first \ escapes the use of the escape \.
instead of:
\pm

Thanks, I focused on other parts of my code and forget about this.
