Hershey Felder, The Secrets About Musical Instruments And Physics Every sound produced by a musical instrument has a physical explication, the way instruments are created and the type of materials that are used define in a unique way the resulting sound. The sound wave is a transfer of energy that doesn't imply matter. Within a more theoretical approach sounds are Mechanical Longitudinal

Dear R users, I would like to use sub- and super-script in axis labels. I assume this is best done using Hershey symbols. When trying to find information on using Hershey font symbols in axis labels, I came across the following discussion thread: http://maths.newcastle.edu.au/~rking/R/help/02a/1857.html Have Hershey font implementations moved on since then? Thanks, Sander. --

Hello R users, I am new to R, so this may be a very stupid question. I need to subscript the dotted circle (Hershey escape sequence "\\SO") to a string. I tried using text(.5,.5,substitute( R[disk] == 5 R["\\SO"] ) ) but it turns out to be a syntax error. Do you have any suggestion? Thanks Gaetano

Hello! The question is simple: What is the escape sequence for a new line when using Hershey fonts? I obviously tried '\n' but it didn't work (see the sample below). I looked at 'demo(Hershey)' but all it only shows escape sequences for printable characters. The sample I've been using to try to find the escape sequence is below. You can comment or un-comment the

I wonder if we couldn't just use the PNG , SVG, support from the GNU plotutils from which we already have the Hershey scalable vector fonts [-> help(Hershey)] The new plotutils (July 2000) do support these (and will probably even better in the future, i.e., we can build on others people free software. Paul [who built "Hershey" into R], do you think this path is worth pursuing?

Dear R experts- I'm running R 1.2.3 (2001-04-26) on Linux. I need to get special symbols, such as a circle with a dot in it as used to indicate Solar units in astronomy, into my plot axis labels. How can I do this? Using the R documentation on the Hershey font sets, one can plot a Solar symbol within the world coordinates of a plot like this: >plot(1:10,1:10)

I run into some problems when trying to convert units using Hershey-Fonts: R chrashes. > library(grid) > label <- "some text" > pushViewport(viewport(gp=gpar(fontfamily="HersheySerif"))) > convertHeight(stringHeight(label), unitTo="mm") *** caught segfault *** address 0xadc838f8, cause 'memory not mapped' Traceback: 1:

I really like to use R for all my graphs, and as I work with stable isotopes I want to have a proper chemical notation in my plots I have looked at ?plotmath, but didn't find the answer and also searched the R website. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- plot(1:10,xlab=expression(^{14}*C)) # I want to have a superscript with nothing in front, but it

I have just committed some changes to R-devel (which will become R 2.5.0 next spring) to add source references to parsed R code. Here's a description of the scheme: The design is done through 2 old-style classes. "srcfile" corresponds to a source file: it contains a filename, the working directory in which that filename is to be interpreted, the last modified timestamp of the

Hi, I would like to draw some Unicode symbols like G- and f-clefs (used in music notation) in quartz-window. I succeed in producing sharp #,: plot(0,0,xlim=c(0,2),ylim=c(0,2)) points(1,1, pch="\u266F",cex=2) But for instance "b" (flat accidental) u266D and those clefs doesn't work. G-clef is said to be UTF-8: F0 9D 84 9E UTF-16: D834 DD1E Code point: U+1D11E I have

Hello, I would like to know if (as the usa map with Splus), it is possible with R to plot the french map and to add points (representing towns for instance) on the figure in the appropriate (x,y) system. Thank you. Nathalie Peyrard

Hi all, suppose there is a vector y with rownames: > y cond1 cond2 cond3 cond4 78.952 87.308 86.490 74.040 how can I easily plot this vector using the rownames? plot(y) gives me a plot with a x-axis from 1 to 4 in 0.5 steps, also plot(rownames(y), y) and plot(y ~ rownames(y) don't work. I know I can build a x-axis with axis(1, ...), but in this case I need a character string like

In the 'RWeaveLatexSetup' function in the 'tools' package in R 1.6.0 , the code below does not work (pdflatex can't find 'Sweave.sty'): if (stylepath) styfile <- file.path(R.home(), "share", "texmf", "Sweave") else styfile <- "Sweave" In R 1.5.1, that was: if(stylepath) styfile <-

Hi, I'm trying to understand whether the new source file references can help me with something I want to do. Let's say I have foo <- parse(text = " a <- 1; b <- 2**2 a + b ") I now wish to recover the sources for the parsed expressions. I can get them one at a time: > foo[[2]] b <- 2^2 > as.character(attr(foo, "srcref")[[2]]) [1] "b <-

Hey, Does anyone know of an equivalent to the LaTeX \perp (perpendicular) symbol for adding to R plots? Parallel is easy enough ("||"), but I haven't been able to find a way of adding perpendicular. The plotmath documentation doesn't mention how to do it, so I'm inclined to think that it doesn't exist - but surely there must be some way of achieving the desired result,

Hi, I'm trying to use the "usr" argument but I see no effect of this option on my plots. For example: > par(usr=c(0,4,0,4)) > plot(1,1) This plots one point fine, but the coordinates of the plotting region are not those that I specified using par()... I can check this with > par("usr") [1] 0.568 1.432 0.568 1.432 What can I change in order to have this

Hello, I would like to insert S code to my latex document. I was looking for a listings package that supports S. In www.r-project.or in the software/other section there is an item with a link to latex package listings, but it seems that the link is broken. Does anybody know an alternative to get the package? Thanks in advance,
