Hi,
I want to put text on a plot containing something like: a = b^2 = <squared
numeric value of b> using bquote.
Example:
mu = 5
plot(1:10,1:10)
text(2,8, bquote(delta == mu^2)) # This works
text(2.5,8, bquote(phantom(0) == .(mu^2))) # but is unpredictable
text(2,8, bquote(delta == mu^2 == .(mu^2))) # This doesn't work
The last text function returns the error:
Error: unexpected '==' in " text(2,8, bquote(delta == mu^2 =="
The first two text functions work in this example, using a default graphics
window on a 64-bit Windows machine, and either R 2.11.0 development edition for
64-bit Windows or R 9.2.2 on the same machine ((x 86)).
I don't mind the two statements except that when trying to automate this by
using the base x coordinate + epsilon*max(x), for example --
x <- 1:10
epsilon=0.05
text(2+esilon*max(x),8, bquote(phantom(0) == .(mu^2)))
for the x position on the 2nd text function, the position of the additional
text is not predictable.
Thanks,
Larry Hotchkiss
