Hello all,

I wonder if there is a way of overloading functions for symbolic objects? I am writing a function that is supposed to work for numeric or symbolic inputs and I use the atan2 function, which is not implemented by the symbolic toolbox. A workaround is testing if the object's class and calling the atan function for symbolic objects but that seems like an ugly solution.

Is there a way to overload functions for toolbox classes? That is a useful thing, but if it involves messing with their classdef files directly or including files in the base installation directories seems very error-prone and not portable.
