Format result in a live script
Show older comments
I am working with symbolic variables and at the same time with real variables, when I enter for example sin (0)*cos (t1) the result is a fraction that tends to zero, I would like to be able to make the value not be shown in fractional form, but instead just be zero.

Thank you.

Convert each of your real-valued constants to symbolic as early as you can, preferably symbolic rationals. For example, instead of
0.75*pi
use
Q = @(v) sym(v)
Q(0.75)*Q(pi)
