Further information
These procedures write the given expression or list of expressions to the active output stream. The procedure
writeln adds the return character to the end of the output. Numbers may be formatted using function
strfmt (default formatting relies on parameters
realfmt and
zerotol, see
setparam). Basic types are printed "as is". For elementary but non-basic types (
linctr,
mpvar) only the address is printed. If the expression is a set or array, all its elements are printed.
