stringc
stringc — constructs a string in Lisp-readable form,
Arguments
- s_exp
Any number of expressions.
Returns
A string which is the concatenation of all of the arguments.
Description
This function is identical to the
string function, except that the
result is produced in a form which is guaranteed to be in
Lisp-readable form. This means that special characters
within strings and symbols will be escaped appropriately
for the reader, and that new-line, form-feed, and tab
characters are translated into their \n, \f, and \t
equivalents.
Example
Gamma> string(#my, #symbol);
"mysymbol"
Gamma> stringc(#my, #symbol);
"mysymbol"
Gamma> stringc("A list: ",list(#a,#b,#c), " and a sum: ",2 + 3);
"\"A list: \"(a b c)\" and a sum: \"5"
Gamma>
