Hi, Jim,

where is the problem? Chose one of these

Plot[Sin[x], {x, 0, 1}, AxesLabel -> {"N", "C"}]
Plot[Sin[x], {x, 0, 1},
AxesLabel -> {Style["N", 16], Style["C", Italic, 16]}]
Plot[Sin[x], {x, 0, 1}, AxesLabel -> {\[CapitalNu], \[CapitalChi]}]
Plot[Sin[x], {x, 0, 1},
AxesLabel -> {\[DoubleStruckCapitalN], \[DoubleStruckCapitalC]}]

Have fun, Alexei


Hi

In my plot I need to label my y-axis N, but Mathematica recognizes
this as numerical value. How do I turn this off while plotting, so I
can label my axis N?

Also, I need to change the font of the N. But I guess that is easy as
long as the above problem is taken care of (i.e. just use Style)?

Best,
Jim.

Simple answer is to use "N" (in quotes) to let Mathematica know it is a character, not a variable or function.

You can use Style[] to change font, size, color of any String.

Did you enclose N in quotation marks? E.g.

ListPlot[Table[{n,Binomial[n,2]},{n,2,20}],AxesLabel->{"N","Binomial"}]

Hi Jim,
simply specify N as a string: "N". Style will take care of the rest.

Use Row instead of StringJoin:

Plot[x, {x, 0, 1},
PlotLabel -> Row[{Style["N", Italic], "(200,300)"}]]
