Hi Everybody I want to print a latex table containing math characters in the column heading
These are the formulae I want to use as column headings. It prints OK from TeX $\sum_{i}\sum_{j}C_{P,i,j,y}\times\mathit{FC}_{i}$, $XU_{alt,y}$, $n$, $\bar{C}_{P,y}$ My plan was to create a character vector with these and later rbind the values to them. When I create the vector like: Season=c("$\sum_{i}\sum_{j}C_{P,i,j,y}\times\mathit{FC}_{i}$","$XU_{alt,y}$" ,"$n$","$\bar{C}_{P,y}$") I get the error message: '\s' is an unrecognized escape in character string starting double backslashes doesn't give an error but doesn't work in Tex "$\\sum_{i}\\sum_{j}C_{P,i,j,y}\\times\\mathit{FC}_{i}$" Session Info below Thanks in advance Christiaan > sessionInfo() R version 2.11.1 (2010-05-31) x86_64-apple-darwin9.8.0 locale: [1] en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8/C/C/en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8 attached base packages: [1] splines grid stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base other attached packages: [1] TeachingDemos_2.6 chron_2.3-35 reporttools_1.0.5 xtable_1.5-6 doBy_4.0.6 Hmisc_3.8-0 survival_2.35-8 [8] gdata_2.8.0 prettyR_1.8-1 reshape_0.8.3 plyr_1.2.1 proto_0.3-8 loaded via a namespace (and not attached): [1] cluster_1.12.3 ggplot2_0.8.8 gtools_2.6.2 lattice_0.18-8 Matrix_0.999375-39 tools_2.11.1 [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
