Not sure what you mean by "double subscript." "11" is the number eleven and that is what is shown, as expected.
0i is the complex number 0+0i (type it at your console), and that is what is shown. Does that solve the mystery? Maybe try it with 11i as the subscript to help you see it. -- Bert Gunter Genentech -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Afshartous, David Sent: Friday, May 23, 2008 2:43 PM To: r-help@r-project.org Subject: [R] exrpression(), double subscript All, The first use of expression produces a double subscript while the second does not. I searched in ?plotmath and the archives and didn't find anything. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious but can't seem to find. any suggestions much appreciated.
