How to use latex's \mathcal{Z} in the axis lables of a Matlab figure?

Answer 1

[M]

title('$\mathcal{Z}$','Interpreter','latex')

[Erez]

Thanks, but that's for the title, no? How do I do this for the y axis label?

[Erez]

ylabel('$\mathcal{Z}$','Interpreter','latex')! Got it, thanks!

[M]

Yes, sorry. I did it for the title but you can use it for x or y label.

If you use sprintf command (for inputting some variable values in the string, you need to put another escape character \ for MATLAB to recognize commands like \mathcal{} ,\in{}, etc.

x = 1:5;
y = sin(x);
plot(x, y);
% regular string does NOT need nother escape character
% xLabel = "t \in [1, 5], t \in \mathcal{N}";
% sprintf needs another escape character
xLabel = sprintf("t \\in [%d, %d], t \\in \\mathcal{N}", x(1), x(end)); 
xlabel(strcat("$", xLabel, "$"), 'Interpreter', 'latex');
yLabel = "sin(t)";
ylabel(strcat("$", yLabel, "$"), 'Interpreter', 'latex');
titleStr = strcat("$\sin(t)$", " for ",  "$", xLabel, "$");
title(titleStr, 'Interpreter', 'latex')
