Fmt Interface

The Fmt Interface converts BOOLEAN, CHAR, INTEGER, and floating point values to TEXT. The Pad routine also allows justifying TEXT in a field of spaces or other character. See the description of Fmt interface for more information.

Example

Format two integers, one positive and one negative.

Fmt.Int(15) = "15"
Fmt.Int(-25) = "-25"

Format the floating-point number "num" using "style" with "prec" digits after the decimal point. If "literal" is TRUE, the result is a legal Modula-3 literal.

Fmt.Real(5.5678,prec := 2) = "5.57"

Pad text strings with extra characters.

Fmt.Pad("Info",6) = "  Info"
Fmt.Pad("Database",5) = "Database"
Fmt.Pad("15.55",8,'*') = "***15.55"
