BUILT-IN MATHEMATICA SYMBOL
Format
Format[expr]
prints as the formatted form of expr. Assigning values to Format[expr] defines print forms for expressions.
Format[expr, form]
gives a format for the specified form of output.
- Standard forms for formatted output are:
-
- You can add your own forms for formatted output.
- Format[s]:=rhs defines a symbol s to print like rhs.
- Format[f[...]]:=rhs defines a function f to print like rhs.
- If you specify a new output format for an expression by giving a definition for Format, there is no guarantee that Mathematica will be able to interpret this output format if it is used as input.
- Definitions given for Format are used before those given for MakeBoxes.
