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))
