I tried all possibl string2functions of Matlab, but not getting quiete the result.

Here's my best try:

syms x
F = x^2; % Definied Function
g = matlabFunction(F); 
% some random steps 
x = -10:0.1:10;
f = g(x); 
p1 =  plot(x,f);
hold on
n = 20; 
C = jet(n);
for k= 1:n
p2 = plot(x,f+2*k,'Color',C(k,:));
end 
% Here comes the questionable part. 
legend([p1,p2],{strcat('f = ',char(F)),sprintf('f at n =  %0.f',n)},...
    'Interpreter','latex','FontSize',20)

Basically I want the function that I definied to be automatically updated in legend. (Pretty handy if you change f multiple times). However in my attemp I get a warning:

String scalar or character vector must have valid interpreter syntax:

f:x^2

How can the function be acknowledged by the interpreter?

A sllightly different approach —

syms x

F = x^2; % Definied Function

g = matlabFunction(F);

% some random steps

x = -10:0.1:10;

f = g(x);

p1 = plot(x,f);

hold on

n = 20;

C = jet(n);

for k= 1:n

p2 = plot(x,f+2*k,'Color',C(k,:));

end

% Here comes the questionable part.

legend([p1,p2],{sprintf('$f = %s$',char(F)),sprintf('$f\\ at\\ n = %0.f$',n)},...

'Interpreter','latex','FontSize',20)

.

I reckognized 'latex(F)' instead of 'char(F)' is just more accurate at displaying functions like

But either way it is working now! Just the right tweeking.

do you need to use latex as just using the default tex? as latex uses $ for markup of symbols i don't know if it'll take the syms function very well without some edits. if you get rid of the interpreter setting and use the default one

syms x

F = x^2; % Definied Function

g = matlabFunction(F);

% some random steps

x = -10:0.1:10;

f = g(x);

p1 = plot(x,f);

hold on

n = 20;

C = jet(n);

for k= 1:n

p2 = plot(x,f+2*k,'Color',C(k,:));

end

% Here comes the questionable part.

legend([p1,p2],{strcat('f = ',char(F)),sprintf('f at n = %0.f',n)},...

'FontSize',20)

more info can be found here in another matlab tex vs latex answers sub

Well, latex just looks more beautiful in my eyes :$
