A convenient way to format and print the numerical values of a bunch of
variables a,b,c, . . . neatly aligned directly under their corresponding
names is
Print[ { {"a", "b", "c", . . . .},
{a, b, c, . . . . . } //N } //TableForm]
The //N is needed for most of the variables in the list, because most of
them will otherwise appear as messy expressions with lots of pi's and
Sqrt[2]'s and such.
The thing is, the variable a has an inherently integer value, and just
being fussy I'd like it to print as an integer. But if I write the
second list as
{Round[a], b, c, . . . .}//N
the a value still comes out with a decimal point. Any simple way to
get rid of the decimal point on that one value, other than putting //N
on each item of the list individually except for a ?
