StringForm

WMA link

StringForm[str, $expr_1$, $expr_2$, ...]

displays the string str, replacing placeholders in str with the corresponding expressions.

StringForm replace placeholders `[number]` by the element $expr_{[number]}$.

• • StringForm["`1` bla `2` blub `3` bla `2`", a, b, c]

An empty placeholder `` is replaced by the element that follows the one used in the previous placeholder:

• • StringForm["`2` bla `1` blub `` bla `3`", a, b, c]

The index of a placeholder must be always a non-negative integer:

• • StringForm["`-1` bla", a]

and cannot exceed the number of extra parameters:

• • StringForm["`2` bla", a]

Backquotes (`) are always interpreted as part of a placeholder:

• • StringForm["`` is Global`a", a]

To use a Backquote as a character, escape it with a backslash:

• • StringForm["`` is Global\\`a", a]

Elements are formatted according the enclosing context:

• • OutputForm[StringForm["Integral of f: ``", Integrate[F[x],x]]]

• • StandardForm[StringForm["Integral of f: ``", Integrate[F[x],x]]]
