Question

In matlab if I make 2 dimensional vector as symbolic syms w[1 10] and write this line: assume(w,'real'); What would be the difference between this syms real w and just syms w?

Answer 1

I'm not sure but from what I can guess is that you have an array of complex numbers and saying 'real' would only return the real part of it.

complex = real + imaginary
6 + 7.8i could be an example where 6 is the real part.
