Algosim documentation: DebugLog

DebugLog

Retrieves or sends a string to the global Algosim debug log.

Syntax

Description

DebugLog() retrieves the global Algosim debug log as an array of strings. Each string starts with a timestamp of the form YYYY-MM-DD hh:nn:ss.zzz followed by a space (U+0020) and the actual log message.

DebugLog(s) sends the string s to the global Algosim debug log as a side effect. The function returns s. The current time is saved automatically and need not be included in s.

Examples

DebugLog("Computing convex hull...");
DebugLog()
2025-04-12 16:40:25.840	Computing convex hull...
2025-04-12 16:40:32.261	Convex hull computed.

Notes

In addition to the (single) Algosim debug log, you can also create named buffers.
