MATLAB: How to add mathematical symbols to text within the legend

greek symbols

I'm finding it difficult to add the maths symbol /phi to my actual legend. I am able to add mathematical symbols to the title, but not the legend. I normally plot my data vectors, then edit the name, etc. of them within the plot tools rather than the command line.
I want to be able to state the number 45 followed by /phi (45/phi)

Best Answer

The legend command should accept TeX symbols by default, just as titles, x/ylabels, etc:
 plot(rand(10,1));
 hl = legend('45\phi');
If not, try
 set(hl, 'interpreter', 'tex')
