How to plot a plot a function that contains itself

Hello,

I need to plot y = a .* log(b.*y), where a and b are known vectors. What would be the best way to go about this.

Thank you

One option is to use the isolate function (essentially equivalent to solve) —

syms a b y 
Eqn = y == a * log(b*y)

Eqn = 

Eqn = isolate(Eqn, y)

Eqn = 

Where ω is the wrightOmega function.

This will produce one value for y, so I¹m not certain that actually goes in the direction you want it to.
