[R] Help with plotmath

2006-09-04 Thread Kenneth Cabrera
Hi R users:

How can I have several subscript number with a comma in a plot.

I would like to have the LaTeX equivalent of

x_{i,j}.

I try:

plot(1:10,1:10,type=n)
text(5,5,expression(x[i,j]))

but it doesn´t work.

Thank you for your help.

[R] Help with plotmath

2004-06-10 Thread Steve Roberts
There must be a simple answer. I want to plot an expression, 
where the expression is held in a string variable. The obvious 
solution along the lines of

ex-x^2
plot( c(0,1), c(0,1), main=as.expression(ex) )

gives me the a title x^2 - ie doesn't treat it like an expression. I 
suspect I don't understand expressions properly. For the real 
problem I do need to have my expression string in a variable as it is 
data-dependent. 

Can someone tell me the magic words?

You *parse* strings to form expressions.

plot( c(0,1), c(0,1), main=parse(text=ex) )

You might also want to explore substitute.

Plotmath example led me to

ex-expression(x^2)
plot( c(0,1), c(0,1), main=(ex) )

hope it is what you want.

No that isn't it I'm afraid - my expression is pasted together from 
various bits and pieces and is at some stage a string variable. I 
needed parse as Brian pointed out

Thanks anyway,

Steve.
