22.4.16 *print-array* Variable

Value Type:
a generalized boolean.

Initial Value:
implementation-dependent.

Description:
Controls the format in which arrays are printed. If it is false, the contents of arrays other than strings are never printed. Instead, arrays are printed in a concise form using #< that gives enough information for the user to be able to identify the array, but does not include the entire array contents. If it is true, non-string arrays are printed using #(...), #*, or #nA syntax.

Affected By:
The implementation.
