Matlab: Greek symbols using 'text' function

Question

How to print a Greek symbol on a figure using the function `sprintf` in MATLAB? I want to write an equation: ``` ε = C x² ``` on a MATLAB figure (not `x` and `y` label). I tried: ``` C=60; eq= sprintf('\epsilon = %d x^2',C); text(x,y,eq) ``` but that doesn't work.

Accepted Answer

Need to escape `\`:

```
eq= sprintf('\epsilon = %d x^2',C); 
```
