Hi all, let me give a simple example:
b<-20
I would like to print ylab as "P20" where "P" is printed in
Italic font. When I
do the following:
plot(1, ylab=expression(paste(italic("P"),b,sep="")))
I got y axis label printed as "Pb" instead of "P20". What is
the best solution
to print platmath symbols with value of the variable at the same time?
Thanks
John
Try this, b = 20 plot(1, ylab= bquote(italic(P) * .(b)) ) HTH, baptiste On 19 August 2010 20:02, array chip <arrayprofile at yahoo.com> wrote:> Hi all, let me give a simple example: > > b<-20 > I would like to print ylab as "P20" where "P" is printed in Italic font.

Thanks, yes it worked! What about if I want to print as "P2, A" where A is just letter A and 2 is from variable b.
