Engineering notation

How can I get the data on Y axis of a plot to show up in engineering notation?

Use my FEX submission num2eng

[Filipe Carneiro]

Hello, is it possible to use this function to replace the dots for commas on the axes of a graph? For example replace 2.3 with 2.3. Do you know a way to do this?

Thanks

Hi Filipe,

Presumably you meant "replace 2.3 with 2,3"?

Are you interested in using engineering notation or SI units as well, or do you just want to replace the decimal point with a comma?

I've updated num2eng with a "useComma" option to use a comma as the decimal separator

Unfortunately the method is ugly.
