12.2.7 Displaying exponents: printpow
The printpow command determines how the print
command will print exponents in the special pane above the output line.
- printpow takes on argument:
n, either -1,0 or 1 (by default 1).
- printpow(n) sets the style for printing exponents
with the print command.
- If n=−1, print(a^b) will subsequently print
a**b).
ab.
- If n=0, print(a^b) will subsequently print
pow(a,b).
- If n=1, print(a^b) will subsequently print
a^b.
