xtick odd behavior

[iwelch]

using Plots; x=1 : 0.1 : 10; Y=[ sin.(x), cos.(x) ];
xloc= [3,5,7]; xlab= ["three", "five", "seven"];
plot( x, Y, xticks= (xloc,xlab) )

works as expected. BUT

plot!( x, Y, xticks= (3.0, "three") )

I am guessing that the three is interpreted as a character array, so only the 't' is put on the axis. It seems odd. not expected naively.

Was able to reproduce. But bracketing the xticks() arguments as below seems to fix just fine.

plot!( x, Y, xticks= ([3.0],["three"]) )

Yes, it's not really an issue IMHO. I think this is unexpected for users from eg R and matlab where no distinction is made between scalar and vector arguments.
