I have a lists of variable names that include greek letters.
names = {"a", "b", "μ", "Σ"}
I would like to construct a lists of formal symbols from these such the above list will return
{\[FormalA], \[FormalB], \[FormalMu], \[FormalCapitalSigma]}
Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.
I have tried mapping Symbol
with no luck.
Symbol["$"<> #] & /@ names
{$a, $b, $μ, $Σ]}
How do I get a list of formal symbols from a list of variable names.
