(G)PRINT  of a  DEF:   vname:CF:format
(G)PRINT  of a CDEF:   vname:CF:format
(G)PRINT  of a VDEF:   vname:format

Last time I checked, this was in the documentation.  Which piece is wrong?


By the way, here's why:  DEF and CDEF produce an array of rates.  VDEF
produces a single rate.  You can print a single value but you need to
summarize an array before you can print it.  Makes sense, no?

thanks,
Alex
