How to use parentheses and degree symbol together?
Hi,
Is it what you are looking for?
plot(0, 0, pch = "")
text(0, .5, expression(Temperature~(degree ~ C)))
text(0, .4, substitute(paste(Temperature, B * degree, "C)"), list(B = "
(")))
Hope this help,
Pascal

I'm interested in using a regular bracket with the degree symbol as an axis label but it's somewhat simpler to show what I mean in a text statement.
plot(0, 0, pch = "")
If I'm easy to please, this would suffice:
text(0, .5, expression(Temperature * degree ~ C))
But I'm not that easily pleased. I prefer it to look like this:
text(0, .4, substitute(paste(Temperature, B * degree, "C)"), list(B = " (")))
It looks fine, but I'm sure there's a more elegant way to do it. Is there?
