REBOL 3 Functions: form

Description

The form function converts a value to a human readable string. It is commonly used by print for output.

form 1234
"1234"

form 10:30
"10:30"

form %image.jpg
"image.jpg"

When given a block of values, spaces are inserted between each values (except after a newline).

form [1 2 3]
"1 2 3"

To avoid the spaces between values use ajoin, join, or rejoin.

The reform function combines reduce with form to evaluate values:

reform [1 + 2 3 + 4]
"3 7"

To produce REBOL-readable output, use the mold function.
