BFSPACE INDEX

BFSPACE _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ switch

Floating point numbers are normally printed in a compact notation (either fixed point or in scientific notation if SCIENTIFIC_NOTATION has been used). In some (but not all) cases, it helps comprehensibility if spaces are inserted in the number at regular intervals. The switch bfspace, if on, will cause a blank to be inserted in the number after every five characters.

examples:


on rounded; 

1.2345678; 

  1.2345678 


on bfspace; 

1.2345678; 

  1.234 5678

bfspaceis normally off.
