@deftypefn  {Command} {} format\n\
@deftypefnx {Command} {} format options\n\
Reset or specify the format of the output produced by @code{disp} and\n\
Octave's normal echoing mechanism.\n\
\n\
This command only affects the display of numbers but not how they are stored\n\
or computed.  To change the internal representation from the default double\n\
use one of the conversion functions such as @code{single}, @code{uint8},\n\
@code{int64}, etc.\n\
\n\
By default, Octave displays 5 significant digits in a human readable form\n\
(option @samp{short} paired with @samp{loose} format for matrices).\n\
If @code{format} is invoked without any options, this default format\n\
is restored.\n\
\n\
Valid formats for floating point numbers are listed in the following\n\
table.\n\
\n\
@table @code\n\
@item short\n\
Fixed point format with 5 significant figures in a field that is a maximum\n\
of 10 characters wide.  (default).\n\
\n\
If Octave is unable to format a matrix so that columns line up on the\n\
decimal point and all numbers fit within the maximum field width then\n\
it switches to an exponential @samp{e} format.\n\
\n\
@item long\n\
Fixed point format with 15 significant figures in a field that is a maximum\n\
of 20 characters wide.\n\
\n\
As with the @samp{short} format, Octave will switch to an exponential\n\
@samp{e} format if it is unable to format a matrix properly using the\n\
current format.\n\
\n\
@item  short e\n\
@itemx long e\n\
Exponential format.  The number to be represented is split between a mantissa\n\
and an exponent (power of 10).  The mantissa has 5 significant digits in the\n\
short format and 15 digits in the long format.\n\
For example, with the @samp{short e} format, @code{pi} is displayed as\n\
@code{3.1416e+00}.\n\
\n\
@item  short E\n\
@itemx long E\n\
Identical to @samp{short e} or @samp{long e} but displays an uppercase\n\
@samp{E} to indicate the exponent.\n\
For example, with the @samp{long E} format, @code{pi} is displayed as\n\
@code{3.14159265358979E+00}.\n\
\n\
@item  short g\n\
@itemx long g\n\
Optimally choose between fixed point and exponential format based on\n\
the magnitude of the number.\n\
For example, with the @samp{short g} format,\n\
@code{pi .^ [2; 4; 8; 16; 32]} is displayed as\n\
\n\
@example\n\
@group\n\

      97.409\n\
      9488.5\n\
  9.0032e+07\n\
  8.1058e+15\n\
@end group\n\
@end example\n\
\n\
@item  short eng\n\
@itemx long eng\n\
Identical to @samp{short e} or @samp{long e} but displays the value\n\
using an engineering format, where the exponent is divisible by 3. For\n\
example, with the @samp{short eng} format, @code{10 * pi} is displayed as\n\
@code{31.4159e+00}.\n\
\n\
@item  long G\n\
@itemx short G\n\
Identical to @samp{short g} or @samp{long g} but displays an uppercase\n\
@samp{E} to indicate the exponent.\n\
\n\
@item  free\n\
@itemx none\n\
Print output in free format, without trying to line up columns of\n\
matrices on the decimal point.  This also causes complex numbers to be\n\
formatted as numeric pairs like this @samp{(0.60419, 0.60709)} instead\n\
of like this @samp{0.60419 + 0.60709i}.\n\
@end table\n\
\n\
The following formats affect all numeric output (floating point and\n\
integer types).\n\
\n\
@table @code\n\
@item  \"+\"\n\
@itemx \"+\" @var{chars}\n\
@itemx plus\n\
@itemx plus @var{chars}\n\
Print a @samp{+} symbol for matrix elements greater than zero, a\n\
@samp{-} symbol for elements less than zero and a space for zero matrix\n\
elements.  This format can be very useful for examining the structure\n\
of a large sparse matrix.\n\
\n\
The optional argument @var{chars} specifies a list of 3 characters to use\n\
for printing values greater than zero, less than zero and equal to zero.\n\
For example, with the @samp{\"+\" \"+-.\"} format,\n\
@code{[1, 0, -1; -1, 0, 1]} is displayed as\n\
\n\
@example\n\
@group\n\
ans =\n\
\n\
+.-\n\
-.+\n\
@end group\n\
@end example\n\
\n\
@item bank\n\
Print in a fixed format with two digits to the right of the decimal\n\
point.\n\
\n\
@item native-hex\n\
Print the hexadecimal representation of numbers as they are stored in\n\
memory.  For example, on a workstation which stores 8 byte real values\n\
in IEEE format with the least significant byte first, the value of\n\
@code{pi} when printed in @code{native-hex} format is\n\
@code{400921fb54442d18}.\n\
\n\
@item hex\n\
The same as @code{native-hex}, but always print the most significant\n\
byte first.\n\
\n\
@item native-bit\n\
Print the bit representation of numbers as stored in memory.\n\
For example, the value of @code{pi} is\n\
\n\
@example\n\
@group\n\
01000000000010010010000111111011\n\
01010100010001000010110100011000\n\
@end group\n\
@end example\n\
\n\
(shown here in two 32 bit sections for typesetting purposes) when\n\
printed in native-bit format on a workstation which stores 8 byte real values\n\
in IEEE format with the least significant byte first.\n\
\n\
@item bit\n\
The same as @code{native-bit}, but always print the most significant\n\
bits first.\n\
\n\
@item rat\n\
Print a rational approximation, i.e., values are approximated\n\
as the ratio of small integers.\n\
For example, with the @samp{rat} format,\n\
@code{pi} is displayed as @code{355/113}.\n\
@end table\n\
\n\
The following two options affect the display of all matrices.\n\
\n\
@table @code\n\
@item compact\n\
Remove blank lines around column number labels and between\n\
matrices producing more compact output with more data per page.\n\
\n\
@item loose\n\
Insert blank lines above and below column number labels and between matrices\n\
to produce a more readable output with less data per page.  (default).\n\

Query or set the internal variable that controls whether Octave will\n\
use a scaled format to print matrix values.\n\
\n\
The scaled format prints a scaling factor on the first line of output chosen\n\
such that the largest matrix element can be written with a single leading\n\
digit.  For example:\n\
\n\
@example\n\
@group\n\

Notice that the first value appears to be 0 when it is actually 1.  Because\n\

Query or set the internal variable that controls whether the dimensions of\n\
empty matrices are printed along with the empty matrix symbol, @samp{[]}.\n\
\n\
For example, the expression\n\

zeros (3, 0)\n\

When called from inside a function with the @qcode{\"local\"} option, the\n\

Query or set the internal variable that controls whether rows of a matrix\n\
may be split when displayed to a terminal window.\n\
\n\
If the rows are split, Octave will display the matrix in a series of smaller\n\
pieces, each of which can fit within the limits of your terminal width and\n\
each set of rows is labeled so that you can easily see which columns are\n\
currently being displayed.  For example:\n\
\n\
@example\n\
@group\n\
octave:13> rand (2,10)\n\
ans =\n\
