Hello, Try this one:
> mtext(expression(Temperature(degree*C))) Hope this help Regards, Pascal Le 12/08/15 12:56, Trevor Carey-Smith a écrit :
If I have two variables set, one of which holds an expression, for example: > label <- 'Temperature' > unit <- expression(paste(degree,'C')) how can I join them together for use in mtext (or equivalent)? The following is conceptually what I want to do, but will obviously not work: > plot(0:1) > mtext(paste(label,unit)) Preferably, I would like this to work if one, both or neither of label and unit are expressions.
