This question is about the display and displayln methods of the SFIToolkit added in Stata version 16.
According to the documentation, they are defined as:
Yet when I use them I find that display actually does what displayln is declared to do, and displayln adds yet another empty line.
For example, the following code:
Produces this output:
While my expectation is this:
How do I tell SFIToolkit to continue the output in the same line??
Thank you, Sergiy
According to the documentation, they are defined as:
display(s[, asis]) | Output a string to the Stata Results window. |
displayln(s[, asis]) | Output a string to the Stata Results window and automatically add a line terminator at the end. |
For example, the following code:
Code:
SFIToolkit.display('A') SFIToolkit.display('B') SFIToolkit.display('C') SFIToolkit.display('D') SFIToolkit.displayln('.') SFIToolkit.display('X') SFIToolkit.displayln('Y') SFIToolkit.display('Z') SFIToolkit.display('T') SFIToolkit.display('.')
Code:
A
B
C
D
.
X
Y
Z
T
.
Code:
ABCD.
XY
ZT.
Thank you, Sergiy
