Giacomo, Use a pure function for the mapping function. myMessage = StringJoin@@Map[ToString[#,TraditionalForm]&,{expr1,expr2,expr3,...,exprN}] David Park djmp at earthlink.net http://home.earthlink.net/~djmp/ From: Giacomo Ciani [mailto:giacomo.ciani at gmail.com] To: mathgroup at smc.vnet.net I have several expressions I whant to convert to string and then concatenate togheter to create a message to be sent to the standard output and written on a text log file. To avoid manually appliyng ToString to each of them, I'm using something like: myMessage = StringJoin@@Map[ToString,{expr1,expr2,expr3,...,exprN}] The problem is that I would like to specify the option "TraditionalForm" for ToString (without that, the exponents are written on a different line compromising the formatting), but I can't understand if using this tecnique I can do that, and how. Obviously I can solve the problem with an explicit loop over the element of the array, but I was looking for a more elegant solution... any idea? Thanks Giacomo P.S. expr are in general both strings or numeric values
