[R] plotmath: how to use greek symbols in expression(integral(f(tau)*dtau, 0, t))?
I would like to use greek tau as a symbol of variable to integrate over in plotmath expression(integral(f(tau)*dtau, 0,t)) but nothing seems to work. I tried d{\tau}, d\tau, etc., without any success Is it possible? How can I accomplish this?

Try expression(paste(integral(),f(,tau,) d,tau,sep=))) it works for me. -tgs On Mon, Oct 4, 2010 at 9:25 AM, Czerminski, Ryszard ryszard.czermin...@astrazeneca.com wrote: I would like to use greek tau as a symbol of variable to integrate over in plotmath expression(integral(f(tau)*dtau, 0,t)) but nothing seems to work.

It does work (albeit without properly including the requested limits of integrations), but if it is used as a teaching example, it will obscure the syntax of plotmath expressions. A simple version that gets the same result is: expression(integral()*f(tau)*d*tau)) Plotmath expressions are parsed from unquoted text with proper non- printing separators being ~ for space and * for juxtaposition. The plotmath paste() is not really the same as the base function paste(), despite identical names and its main value is as a method for allowing commas to also be used as separators. Frankly I'm a bit surprised you got away with adding the undocumented sep= argument. My reading of the help page for plotmath would have lead me to predict that the text 'sep=' should appear in the output. Instead the sep= is ignored and the text string is appended to the end of the expression Try for instance: plot(1,1, main=expression(paste(a,b,c,d, sep=-) ) ) -- David. -tgs On Mon, Oct 4, 2010 at 9:25 AM, Czerminski, Ryszard ryszard.czermin...@astrazeneca.com wrote: I would like to use greek tau as a symbol of variable to integrate over in plotmath expression(integral(f(tau)*dtau, 0,t)) but nothing seems to work.
