syms i1 i2 i3 i4 r1 r2 r3 r4 r5 r6 r7 r8 r9 r10 r11;
i1 i2 i3 i4 start out as symbolic
eq1 = 3-V(j,1)*(i1)-V(j,2)*(i1-i4)-V(j,3)*(i1+i2)-V(j,4)*i1==0;
eq2 = 3-V(j,4)*(i2 + i3)-V(j,8)*(i2+i4)-V(j,3)*(i2+i1)-V(j,5)*(i2)-V(j,6)*(i2+i3)== 0;
eq3 = 3-V(j,7)*(i2+i3)-V(j,10)*(i3-i4)-V(j,6)*(i3+i2)-V(j,9)*i3==0;
eq4 = V(j,2)*(i4-i1)+V(j,8)*(i2+i4)+V(j,10)*(i4-i3)+V(j,11)*i4==0;
and get used in those equations, so those start out as symbolic equations
Now they are assigned numeric, so they are no longer symbolic. So when you loop back to eq1 etc, those become expressions of numeric values == numeric values, which gives a logical result, not symbolic.
