Data of double type are output with the accuracy of up to 16 digits after a decimal point, and can be output either in traditional or in scientific format, depending on what notation will be more compact. Data of float type are output with 5 digits after a decimal point. To output real numbers with another accuracy or in a predefined format, use the [DoubleToString()](/en/docs/convert/doubletostring) function.
|
||
|
||
Data of bool type are output as "true" or "false" strings. Dates are shown as YYYY.MM.DD HH:MI:SS. To show dates in another format, use the [TimeToString()](/en/docs/convert/timetostring) function. Data of color type are output either as R,G,B string or as a color name, if this color is present in the color set.

Comment() function does not work during optimization in the [Strategy Tester](/en/docs/runtime/testing#print).

|
||

||
|
||
```
|

void OnTick()
|
||
{
|
||
//---
|
||
double Ask,Bid;
|
||
int Spread;
|
||
Ask=SymbolInfoDouble(Symbol(),SYMBOL_ASK);
|
||
Bid=SymbolInfoDouble(Symbol(),SYMBOL_BID);
|
||
Spread=SymbolInfoInteger(Symbol(),SYMBOL_SPREAD);
|
||
//--- Output values in three lines
|
||
Comment(StringFormat("Show prices\nAsk = %G\nBid = %G\nSpread = %d",Ask,Bid,Spread));
|
||
}
