decimal
Renders an exact number as a decimal string to a given number of digits (defaults to 6) -- a display conversion only, the underlying value stays exact.
x(number) --digits(number) -- optional, defaults to 6
Display Conversion
float
Converts a number to a native IEEE double and displays it -- a genuinely approximate conversion, unlike decimal()/scientific() which stay exact to the requested precision.
x(number) --
scientific
Renders an exact number in scientific notation to a given number of significant figures (defaults to 6).
x(number) --sigDigits(number) -- optional, defaults to 6
repeating
Renders the exact repeating-decimal expansion of a fraction, e.g. 1/6 -> 0.1(6). An optional base (2-63) computes the expansion in that base instead of base 10.
x(number) --base(number) -- optional, 2-63, defaults to 10
table
Creates a mutable result table with one or more display-column headers. Use addRow() to append scalar, vector, or matrix values, then evaluate the table variable to render it.
headers(string...) -- one quoted header per column
addRow
Appends one complete row to a table. The number of values must match its headers; every value uses its normal APAScript display form.
table(table) -- a bound table variablevalues(value...) -- one scalar, vector, or matrix value for each column
