When drawing a graph, I'd like the unicode character 'middle dot' (or something else similar to \cdot in latex) to be used when writing numbers. Something like the following works for me:
x <- 1:10 y <- runif(length(x)) par(las=1, bty='n') plot(x,y, ylim=c(0,1), yaxt='n') p <- pretty(y) axis(2, at=p, labels=format(p, decimal.mark="\u00B7")) at least on x11() and pdf() devices. Is it intentional that I can't use a unicode char though for options(OutDec)? > options(OutDec='\u00B7') Error in options(OutDec = "*") : invalid value for 'OutDec' [I've replaced the cdot with the * in the error line above, in case it mangles the email into non-ascii.] R version 2.8.1 (2008-12-22) Thanks, Stephen ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
