write superscript in string

Hello all,

I'm trying to show my R squared as a title but i wan 2 to be as a superscript not just R2. Here's my inputs:

R2 = 0.75;
t = sprintf('R^2 = %0.2f',R2);
title(t)

this gives me

t = 'R2 = 0.75'

but what I want is R superscript 2.

Same result, perhaps a little simpler.

R2 = 0.75;
title(['R^2 = ' num2str(R2)])

It could be the interpreter. Does this work for you?

R2 = 0.75;
t = sprintf('R^2 = %0.2f',R2);
title(t,'interpreter','tex')

Also, it might be relevant to know what this returns for you:

get(groot,'defaultTextInterpreter')
