SUMMARY
Greek symbols cannot be directly used in the MATLAB workspace; they are primarily restricted to labels on plots. Users often resort to using Latin equivalents, such as 'r' for ρ (rho) and 's' for σ (sigma), to represent these symbols in calculations or variable names. This limitation is a common point of confusion among MATLAB users seeking to enhance their workspace with Greek notation.
