4 views (last 30 days)
I am trying to make vector equations for line segments. I have both the vectors and the equation for it, but it wont let me use fprintf to display it. please show me what to fix!
syms t
A=[-7,3,-1]; B=[1,0,5];
v=((1-t)*A)+(t*B);
fprintf('The vector equation for the line segment is <%g,%g,%g>\n',v)
clear;

'%g' is for numeric type, since your v vector is sym, therefore, you need to use '%s'
syms t
A=[-7,3,-1]; B=[1,0,5];
v=((1-t)*A)+(t*B);
fprintf('The vector equation for the line segment is <%s,%s,%s>\n',v)
clear;
