what this equation means 4*L/(2*i-1)?

I am trying to convert this equation 4*L/(2*i-1) into R
I failed to undersatnd why the output is two negative values in matlab
but R'output is a single value
L= 17;
i=4;
(2*i-1) gives -1 + 2; Is it i here is a complex number?

If you use the expression 4*L/(2*i-1) in R, I guess that "i" was set to a value somewhere before in the R-code. If you set "i" to the same value in your MATLB code, MATLAB will compute the same value for the expression as R does. If you don't set "i" to a value before you compute the expression, MATLAB will interprete "i" as the imaginary unit.
L = 17;
i = 4;
4*L/(2*i-1)
ans = 9.7143
clear i
4*L/(2*i-1)
ans = -13.6000 -27.2000i

Never use i or j if you are not dealing with complex numbers. Use ii or jj instead if you have to.

Yes, Matlab sees "i" as complex. Maybe pick another variable if you are just using scalars.
