RodaAdvPL

01 · OVERVIEW

Overview

The historical reference presents Roda with two reserved arguments and size P, M or G, default M. It belongs to an already prepared printing flow with headers, pagination and output destination; it does not create a report by itself. The block shows size G without printing. For new code, evaluate release-supported reporting instead of carrying global state from old samples. (Sources: refs. 1–1.)
