Details

  • This message is generated when the second argument in AccountingForm, EngineeringForm, NumberForm, PaddedForm, or ScientificForm does not have the expected form.
  • The formatting specification is the second argument in these functions.
  • The formatting specification is expected to be a positive integer indicating the number of digits to display, or a pair of positive integers indicating the total number of digits and the number of digits to the right of the decimal point.
  • Off[message] switches off the message; On[message] switches it on. For example: Off[AccountingForm::iprf].

Examples

Basic Examples  (1)

This input generates an error because All is not a valid format specification in PaddedForm:

Wolfram Language code: PaddedForm[Column[{17.4, 22.9, 0.031, 207.0}], All]

This shows a correct use of a formatting specification in PaddedForm:

Wolfram Language code: PaddedForm[Column[{17.4, 22.9, 0.031, 207.0}], {9, 6}]
