Helper function for axis labels using base plotting

axis_fun(
  side,
  at,
  at2,
  labels,
  cex.axis = 1,
  line = -0.25,
  lwd = 1,
  maj.tcl = -0.6,
  min.tcl = -0.3,
  las = 1,
  axisLine = 0,
  ...
)

Arguments

side: an integer specifying which side of the plot the axis is to be drawn on. The axis is placed as follows: 1=below, 2=left, 3=above and 4=right.
at: major points at which tick-marks are to be drawn. Non-finite (infinite, NaN or NA) values are omitted.
at2: minor point at which tick-marks are to be drawn. Non-finite (infinite, NaN or NA) values are omitted.
labels: major tick mark labels
cex.axis: size of major axis labels text (default = 1)
line: the number of lines into the margin at which the axis line will be drawn (default = -0.25)
lwd: line widths for the axis line and the tick marks
maj.tcl: length of major ticks
min.tcl: length of minor ticks
las: direction of text
axisLine: the number of lines into the margin at which the axis line will be drawn

Value

a function that provides major and minor ticks with labels

Note

see axis() function

Examples

plot(runif(25),ylim=c(0,1),xlim=c(0,1),xaxt="n",yaxt="n")
axis_fun(1,seq(0,1,0.5),seq(0,1,0.25),seq(0,1,0.5))
axis_fun(2,seq(0,1,0.5),seq(0,1,0.25),seq(0,1,0.5))
