Creating a table with syms

14 views (last 30 days)
Hi I am trying to display a table with a 2x2 sym matrix that is the following:
% matrix = [I4_1,I4_2;I4_3,I4_4];

When I create a table with the matrix, it displays as follows:
% table([I4_1;I4_3],[I4_2;I4_4]);

The only way I came arround is to convert syms to char arrays:
% t1 = table([cellstr(char((I4_1)))],[[cellstr(char((I4_2)))]],'RowNames',["Enable = 5V"]);
% t1.Properties.VariableNames = ["Q2_VBE = min","Q2_VBE = max"];
% t2 = table([[cellstr(char((I4_3)))]],[[cellstr(char((I4_4)))]],'RowNames',["Enable = 0V"]);
% t2.Properties.VariableNames = ["Q2_VBE = min","Q2_VBE = max"];
% VR3 = [t1;t2]

I want to know if there is a better way to display syms on tables, because personally I don't how functions look in plain text

Unfortunately, No, there is not. table() is not designed for display purposes. The interior methods to display the contents build strictly character information, not graphics like would be needed to show the fractions and subscripts.
Livescript can display sym in nicer format, but not inside a table .
Livescript also has a bunch of built-in Latex support. Unfortunately I have not yet found any way to get it to display dynamically generated latex, such as might result from applying latex() to a sym object: the latex support that I have found so far for Livescript is strictly for static text such as an equation "inserted" into the worksheet.

Thanks for the information Walter, I think I will be doing these tables in Word or something like that.
