Hello,
I have the following equation that I'm trying to solve. I need to solve for T for a very long array of known RT
function RT=RTD(T)
a=0.003925;
b=0.110361;
d=1.492690;
R0=100;
RT=R0*(1+a*(1+d/100)*T-a*d/100^2*T^2+a*b/100^3*T^3-a*b/100^4*T^4);
I dont think I have fsolve or symbolic toolbox installed. Is there anyway to automate this without using those?
Thanks

Assuming that each RT will yield four roots:
a=0.003925;
b=0.110361;
d=1.492690;
R0=100;
T=zeros(4,length(RT));
for n=1:length(RT)
T(:,n)=roots(-a*b/100^4*R0 a*b/100^3*R0 -a*d/100^2*R0 a*(1+d/100)*R0 (1-RT(n))*R0);
end
If you want to create an actual function, go to file->new->script and paste the following:
function [T]=RTD(RT)
a=0.003925;
b=0.110361;
d=1.492690;
R0=100;
T=zeros(4,length(RT));
for n=1:length(RT)
T(:,n)=roots(-a*b/100^4*R0 a*b/100^3*R0 -a*d/100^2*R0 a*(1+d/100)*R0 (1-RT(n))*R0);
end
end
Then you can call this function and pass your array of RT. The function will return you an array of T.
T=RTD(RT)
P.S. Make sure there is enough parenthesis in the equation so the coefficients are calculated properly. I recommend to calculate the coefficients prior sending them to roots function. This also will save some time, since the coefficients will be calculated only once instead of each loop.

You left out the [] in that roots() call, so this code will end up taking roots() of a scalar.

a=0.003925;
b=0.110361;
d=1.492690;
R0=100;
syms k T
cf = coeffs(k-R0*(1+a*(1+d/100)*T-a*d/100^2*T^2+a*b/100^3*T^3-a*b/100^4*T^4),T)
fcf = matlabFunction(cf(end:-1:1))
RTD = @(RT)cell2mat(arrayfun(@(x)roots(fcf(x)),RT,'un',0))
use function RTD
T = RTD(RT)

I have used your proposed solution, but the output variable of Temp = RTD(RT) is the sym T. What is the problem? Can you help me?
Thanks

roots( [R0*a*b, -100*R0*a*b, 10000*R0*a*d, -100000000*R0*a-1000000*R0*a*d, -100000000*R0+100000000*RT] )
Note that roots() can only process one set of coefficients at a time: it is not vectorized.
