I feel that a main advantage of matplotlib (over other solutions I have used) is that there is a complete programming language available. In this case, just use the standard string handling of python. See e.g. http://docs.python.org/library/stdtypes.html#string-formatting Untested code: annotation_string = "f(x) = %f * x + %f R^2 = %f" % (gradient, intercept, r-value) ax.annotate(annotation_string, xy=(2.9,-0.75), xytext=(2.9,-0.75)) / johan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Matplotlib-users mailing list Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-users
