Pretty-print error messages.

stream

An instance of <stream>.

string

An instance of <byte-string>.

args	An instance of <object>.

None

Used for error message printing. Turns each space in the control string into a conditional newline, and turns literal newlines into a mandatory newline and 2 space indent.

A method that uses pretty-format.

stream

An instance of <stream>.

control-string

An instance of <byte-string>.

args	An instance of <object>.

None

This method prints error messages using pretty-format. It works by shadowing the condition-format method defined on (<stream>, <string>).

Print an object's classname to a stream.

thing

An instance of <object>.

stream

An instance of <object>.

None

This print's thing's object-class's name to the stream. If the class is anonymous, the default representation of classes is printed to the stream. (This should never happen until d2c learns how to make anonymous classes.)

Prints the address of an object

thing

An instance of <object>.

stream

An instance of <object>.

None

Prints the hexadecimal address of object to the stream stream.

Used to print an object and its fields

thing

An instance of <object>.

stream

An instance of <object>.

fields

An instance of <object>. Plist of fieldnames and values.

None

This method is a tool used to print the constituents of an object. The #rest argument is a list of symbols alternating with values — the symbols are used as the field names for the values.

Vector of English names for numbers.

<vector>

This vector contains the names that are prefixed by numbers less than a hundred — "thousand", "million", etc. It is used in the method integer-to-english.

Vector of the English tens units.

<vector>

This vector contains the names of multiples of ten — "twenty", "thirty", etc. It is used in the method integer-to-english.

Vector of English words for 0 to 20.

<vector>

This vector contains strings naming the integers from 0 to 20. It is used in the method integer-to-english .

Like $thousand-cardinals, except to name positions.

<vector>

This vector lists the ordinals for numbers bigger than 1000 — "millionth", "billionth" and so on. It is used in the method integer-to-english.

Like $ten-cardinals, except to name positions.

<vector>

This vector lists the ordinals for small integers from 0 to 20 — "zeroth", "first", etc. It is used in the method integer-to-english.

Convert an integer to an English string.

int	An instance of <integer>.

as:	An instance of one-of(#"cardinal", #"ordinal").

res	An instance of <byte-string>.

This method converts an <integer> object into the English string for the number it represents. If the keyword as: is set to #"ordinal", then the English string is the name of the n-th position; otherwise it is just the name of the number.
