Converts a string into a function to plot

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
So I have mathematic functions like sin(x), cos(x) etc. in a string format that I want to convert into a function so I would be able to plot it.
equ='sin(x)';
f= @(x) equ;
plot(x,f)
error message:
Error using plot
Invalid data argument.

"So I have mathematic functions like sin(x), cos(x) etc. in a string format that I want to convert into a function..."
Your example contains no strings or character arrays at all:
equ=sin(x);
f= @(x) equ;
This makes your question difficult to interpret. Do you actually have a character vector? E.g.:
str = 'sin';
Please show the actual definition of your input data.

Sorry, it seems like I missed out on '' when I changed my code to make it simple here.

"it does work when you only use it like you did fun(pi/2) but it somehow doesn't let me plot it."
I have no problems plotting it. As you did not show your code I have no way to debug what you tried.
"...but still cannot plot the graph. I still get the same error when try to plot it."
Not only is your code a secret, so is the error message that you get. No information -> no debugging help.
Well, it works for me. Lets try it together using two different plotting commands:
>> equ = 'sin(x)';
>> fun = str2func(sprintf('@(x)%s',equ));
>> X = linspace(-2*pi,2*pi,101);
>> Y = fun(X);
>> plot(X,Y)
>> ezplot(fun)

I found out I can't directly plot fun, but gotta go through fun(x). Thanks a lot! You really helped me a lot there :)

equ=sin(x);
f= @(x) equ;
x = linspace(0,2*pi) ;
plot(x,f(x))
