No, "|" is a logical Operator that can be rewritten in its original function form as follows: "|"(FALSE, TRUE) Hence the result is expected. > ## Group produces an error > legend(legend = c(expression(group(L(y, "|", mu)))), x = "topleft") You have not specified any delimiter. > ## Paste keeps commas in expression > legend(legend = c(expression(paste(L(y, "|", mu)))), x = "bottomleft") correct > ## This one is OK, but braces are not as they should be > legend(legend = c(expression(paste("L(y", "|", "mu)"))), x = "bottom") What's wrong with the braces?` What you really want is: legend(legend = c(expression(L(group("", y, "|") * mu))), x = "center") Uwe Ligges > Thanks! > > Lep pozdrav / With regards, > Gregor Gorjanc > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > University of Ljubljana > Biotechnical Faculty URI: http://www.bfro.uni-lj.si/MR/ggorjan > Zootechnical Department mail: gregor.gorjanc <at> bfro.uni-lj.si > Groblje 3 tel: +386 (0)1 72 17 861 > SI-1230 Domzale fax: +386 (0)1 72 17 888 > Slovenia, Europe > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > "One must learn by doing the thing; for though you think you know it, > you have no certainty until you try."
