The expression to the left of the equals sign is not a valid target for an assignment

12 次查看(过去 30 天)
both x and y has been introduced by syms. This seems to me perfectly correct. What is wrong here?
>> solve(5*x + 4*y = 3, x-6*y = 2)
solve(5*x + 4*y = 3, x-6*y = 2)
Error: The expression to the left of the equals sign is not a valid target for an assignment.
Then I tried this
>> solve('5*x + 4*y = 3, x-6*y = 2')
Warning: Support of character vectors will be removed in a future release. Character vectors can be used only for variable names and
numbers. Instead, to create symbolic expressions first create symbolic variables using 'syms'. To evaluate character vectors and
strings representing symbolic expressions, use 'str2sym'.

It says something about x and y. Would you please explain the situation in a simple way?
Thank you.

syms x y
sol = solve(5*x + 4*y == 3, x-6*y == 2);
pretty(sol.x), pretty(sol.y)
13 -- 17 7 - -- 34

The reference is quite difficult for me to understand. I am someone with no background of data structures. Would you please explain it to me over this simple example?
>> solve(5*x + 4*y == 3, x-6*y == 2)
ans =
struct with fields:
x: [1×1 sym]
y: [1×1 sym]
2. But when I did s.x it gave me this notification. non-existent field.
solve(5*x + 4*y == 3, x-6*y == 2) ;s.x
Reference to non-existent field 'x'.
b=solve(5*x + 4*y == 3, x-6*y == 2)
b =
struct with fields:
x: [1×1 sym]
y: [1×1 sym]
>> b.x
ans =
13/17
>> b.y
ans =
-7/343. b=solve(5*x + 4*y == 3, x-6*y == 2)
b =
struct with fields:
x: [1×1 sym]
y: [1×1 sym]
>> b.x
ans =
13/17
>> b.y
ans =
-7/34
