[R] Beautifying axis tick labels

[Richard.Cotton at hsl.gov.uk]

> For example, the y axis shows "0 500000 1500000". Is there any way to
> beautify the tick labels to get 0 5 10 15, and at the top of y-axis 
"x10^5"
> (superscript 5) ? My plots all have different ylim, how to perform the
> beautification automatically ?

plot((0:15)*1e5, yaxt="n", ylab="")
axis(side=2, at=c(0,5,15)*1e5, labels=c(0,5,15))
mtext("x10^5", adj=-.1)
