[Matplotlib-users] mathtext in labels

[Steve S. <el...@gm...>]

Hi

I have a problem when joining 2 strings in a label:

	plot(..., label = r'$x^2$')

works, but

	plot(..., label = r'$x^2 = $' + str(3))

produces labels like $x^2 = $3

I think this is because I try to join a "normal" string and a "raw" 
string. Is there a way to do this properly?

cheers,
steve

Should array indices start at 0 or 1? My compromise of 0.5 was rejected 
without, I thought, proper consideration.
