MATLAB: How to display polar form in GUI edit text

Question

Hi, im new to GUI. I have a simple question.. How to display polar form in GUI edit text?

let say, a=4-2i

set(handles.edit_polar,'string',num2str(a))

so this will display 4-2in in the edit text.. but how to make it displayed in polar form? like this=>(4.47<-26.57) is it possible?

i know how to convert them into magnitude and angle, but how to display them in the gui edit text..

Thanks in advance… 🙂

Answer 1

a = 4 - 2i;
s = sprintf('(%g %g)', abs(a), angle(a) * 180 / pi);
set(handles.edit_polar, 'string', s);
