Importing Latex Code into Matlab Scripts

Is there an easy way to import Latex code into a Matlab script or live script?

Answer 1

[Vladimir Sovkov]

In live script, go to \insert\Equation\Latex equation or just press Cntrl+Shift+L or type your Latex equation embraced by $ symbols.

Vladimir,

Thank you for your answer.

When I do this, a line of text appears, but how can I turn this into executable Matlab code?

David.

[Vladimir Sovkov]

This is indeed a way of making a good-looking equation in the live script text mode. I am unaware of a simple method to convert it into the executable Matlab code. The syntax differ, hence, a retranslator though is possible in principle, would be a huge complicated system, and I do not think it has been created by anybody thus far.

[Vladimir Sovkov]

The reverse operation is easier--a Matlab symbolic expression can be turned to a latex formular with the command "latex" in the Symbolic Math Toolbox.
