When I type:

>> syms x y

>> solve(y-x^2,x)

I get:

ans =

[ 1/2 ]

[y ]

[ ]

[ 1/2]

[-y ]

How do I change the output format so to get MATLAB code (with * and ^), which by the way is what I used to get (before today)?

@Peter van der Kamp use texlabel function

syms x y

sol = solve(y-x^2,x);

sol

sol =

solStr = texlabel(sol)

solStr = '[-{y}^{{1}/{2}}; {y}^{{1}/{2}}]'

Thanks, it's nice to know that I can turn things into tex. But it's not what I want. I'd like to define the solutions as branches of a multivalued function which I can feed back into MATLAB. Of course, this is just a simple example which I created for the issue I'm having. I used to get my answer in the following format: e.g. sqrt(5/2 + sqrt(w^2 + 9/4)) which is what I'm after. I'm using version R2022b.

Change the symbolic preference of Type-setting as follows -

syms x y

sol = solve(y-x^2,x)

sol =

%Preference changed (Default value is true)
sympref('TypesetOutput',false);
%Check the output now
sol
 
sol =
 
-y^(1/2)
 y^(1/2)

Based on your comments, things seem to be mixed up.

Yes, reinstalling MATLAB should clear the issue.

Let us know what happens after reinstalling.

Hi Dyuman, good news here:

>> syms x y

>> solve(x-y^2,y)

ans =

-x^(1/2)

x^(1/2)

After reinstalling MATLAB and restarting my computer, things are working well again. IT suggested that maybe a restart of the computer could have fixed the problem (I tend to not do that often enough, sorry).

Cheers,

Peter

Hi Peter,

If you're using MATLAB version R2016b or newer, you can use "string(sol)" to convert the solution to a string format.

For versions older than R2016b, please use "char(sol)" to achieve the same outcome.

Below is a code snippet for your reference:

>> syms x y
>> sol = solve(y-x^2,x);
>> solStr = string(sol);
>> solChar = string(sol);
>> disp(solStr)
    "-y^(1/2)"
    "y^(1/2)"
>> disp(solChar)
    "-y^(1/2)"
    "y^(1/2)"
