Is it possible to assign a special charachter to a value?

Something like: â=inv(A)*a.

Thanks in advance

The closest you can get these days is to create a table object and then something like

MyTable.('â') = value ;

You can use the isvarname function to determine if something is a valid MATLAB variable name.

The naming rules are here. (I suppose there may be some nuances varying by region or language setting, but I don't think so.)
