Thank to both of you.

I found an interesting document by Uwe Ligges in Rnews December 2002 (Vol
2/3)

The following seems encouraging

x=seq(1,180,by=1)
beta=10
eta=5
plot(x,log(x),type="p",xlab="x",ylab="h(x)",main=substitute("Failure rate "
* eta==myeta * "," * beta   ,list(myeta=eta,mybeta=beta)) )

but then it fails :

x=seq(1,180,by=1)
beta=10
eta=5
plot(x,log(x),type="p",xlab="x",ylab="h(x)",main=substitute("Failure rate
from W(" * eta==myeta * "," * beta==mybeta , ")"
,list(myeta=eta,mybeta=beta)) )

Any idea ?


Yes, Uwe's idea is that you need to provide valid S expressions, and it is invalid to do more than one comparison (e.g. using "==") in a row:

R> 1 == 2 == 3
Error: unexpected '==' in "1 == 2 =="

but you may do:

R> {1 == 2} == 3
[1] FALSE

which is nonsense but at least valid.
So let us make it valid for your code as well:

plot(x, log(x), type="p", xlab="x", ylab="h(x)",
  main = substitute("Failure rate from W(" * {eta == myeta} *
    "," * {beta == mybeta} * ")",
    list(myeta = eta, mybeta = beta)))

Thank you very much

Try this:

plot(x, log(x),
     xlab = "x", ylab = "h(x)",
     main = bquote(Failure~rate~from~W(eta == .(eta), beta == .(beta)))

Hello,

I have to do a few graphics of the same function and this function is
parametrized by two arguments.

What I would like is to be able to change the value of these two arguments
without changing the plot command. So as to copy paste.

I tried the following :

x=1:100
eta=10
beta=5
plot(x,h(x),xlab="x",ylab="h(x)",main=substitute( expression(
paste("Failure
rate from",W(eta==myeta,beta==mybeta) ) ) ,list(myeta=eta,mybeta=beta) )
)

But it doesn't work. It's written "expression ( Failure rate from
W(eta=10,)
..." on the plot with eta as a greek letter.

Thank you very much !
