I have a for loop with counter i and I'm producing plots where I ultimately want to label the axes: "Entry a_i from P^q", where a, P and q are just letters, and i is the value of the for loop counter. I've tried various combinations of paste, expression and substitute, but I can't get this to work nicely. Thanks much! -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Sub-Superscript-in-plot-in-a-loop-tp3435021p3435021.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

I'll bet you haven't tried: as.expression(bquote(Entry~.(a)[.(i)]~from~.(P)^.(q)))
