The R
package diagram
has been giving me some very nice flow charts. Here is a simple example:
install.packages("diagram")
require(diagram)
A = matrix(nrow = 2, ncol = 2, data = 0)
A[2,1] = "hello"
par(xpd = NA)
plotmat(A, name = c("A", "B"))
I would like to change the arrowlabel (currently set as "hello") to be "(+)". So,
A[2,1] = "(+)"
plotmat(A, name = c("A", "B"))
But this fails:
Error in parse(text = x, ...) : <text>:1:3: unexpected ')'
1: (+)
^
Is there a set of escape characters, or some other trick, that will force parse
to interpret my symbols as simple text? Of course, a workaround is to use text
to place text on the plot, but I'm hoping to take advantage of plotmat's
built-in label positioning functionality.
