Re: symbols in graphs

Dear Christof

It is very simple to include symbols in graphs in R. Simply write

xyplot(...,ylab=_expression_(alpha),...)

Unfortunately, this does not work in S-PLUS.

Best regards

Hi,
I was trying to follow the Programmer's Guide to get symbols into my graphs but have not been successful. For example, I tried to get an alpha into the y-axis label

xyplot( ...,ylab = "\\\"Symbol\"a",...)

but that did not work. Any suggestions?

Thanks
Christof
