main-apidocs-erlang-estdlib-io-underscore-lib.md
An implementation of the Erlang/OTP io_lib interface.
This module implements a strict subset of the Erlang/OTP io_lib interface.
chars() = [char() | chars()]
| format/2 | Format string and data to a string. |
| fwrite/2 | Format string and data to a string. |
| latin1_char_list/1 | Determine if passed term is a list of ISO-8859-1 characters (0-255). |
| printable_list/1 | Determine if List is a flat list of printable characters. |
| write/1 | Returns a character list that represents Term. |
| write_atom/1 | |
| write_binary/3 | |
| write_string/1 | Returns the list of characters needed to print String as a string. |
format(Format::io:format(), Args::list()) -> string()
Format: format string
Args: format argument
returns: string
Format string and data to a string. Features most of OTP io_lib:format/2. Raises badarg error if the number of format specifiers does not match the length of the Args.
fwrite(Format, Args) -> any()
Equivalent to format(Format, Args).
Format string and data to a string. Features most of OTP io_lib:format/2. Raises badarg error if the number of format specifiers does not match the length of the Args.
latin1_char_list(Term::any()) -> boolean()
Term: term to test
returns: true if Term is a list of latin1 characters, false otherwise.
Determine if passed term is a list of ISO-8859-1 characters (0-255).
printable_list(List::any()) -> boolean()
List: term to test
Determine if List is a flat list of printable characters
write(Term::any()) -> chars()
Term: term to represent
Equivalent to forma("~w", [Term]).
Returns a character list that represents Term
write_atom(Atom::atom()) -> chars()
write_binary(Binary::binary(), Depth::integer(), CharLimit::integer()) -> {iodata(), binary()}
write_string(String::string()) -> chars()
String: string to print
Equivalent to write_string(String, $").
Returns the list of characters needed to print String as a string.
