Note that adjacent string literals on the same line or inside parentheses are automatically concatenated by the compiler. So you may write the above as plt.title( r'$\mathrm{poles}$ $(\times)$ ' r'$\mathrm{\&}$ $\mathrm{zeros}$ ' r'$(\circ)$ $\mathrm{of}$ $T(s)T(-s)$', fontsize=16) Even if you leave everything else as is you don't need any backslashes at the end of the line. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
