| pretty10exp {sfsmisc} | R Documentation |
Produce nice a * 10^k expressions to be used
instead of the scientific notation "a E<k>".
pretty10exp(x, drop.1 = FALSE, digits.fuzz = 7)
x |
numeric vector (e.g. axis tick locations) |
drop.1 |
logical indicating if 1 * should be dropped from the resulting expressions. |
digits.fuzz |
number of digits to be considered for integer equality; do not change lightly! |
an expression of the same length as x, with elements of the
form a %*% 10 ^ k.

axTexpr which builds on pretty10exp();
further axis, axTicks.
