Dear R Users,
Please I have the following query. I want to label one of the axes
of my graph with the follwing latex expression- \beta^{\prime}x, i.e
I have the transpose of beta. How do I go abt this.
My second query is similar but it has to do with the conditioning
symbol. The other axis is to be labelled as Y|X + \beta^{\prime}x.
?plotmath
plot(1,1, xlab=expression(beta^"`"*X), ylab=expression(Y*"|"*X
+beta^"`"*X) )
(Unfortunately the prime on the y lab is noe on the printed page in my
device ( mac). so this hack seems to work better)
plot(1,1, xlab=expression(beta^"'"*X),
ylab=expression(over(phantom(""), Y*"|"*X+beta^"'"*X) ))
Thank you very much as I await assistance on this. John [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

A short answer is you can consider the tikzDevice package; then a long (really really long) answer is this: http://yihui.github.com/knitr/demo/graphics/ Regards, Yihui -- Yihui Xie <xieyihui at gmail.com> Phone: 515-294-2465 Web: http://yihui.name Department of Statistics, Iowa State University 2215 Snedecor Hall, Ames, IA
