How can I manipulate the output of Information?












4












$begingroup$


If I type



Information[ProductLog]


I see



Information[ProductLog]



If I type



Framed[Information[ProductLog]]


I see



Framed[Information[ProductLog]]



This is expected, though not desired, because Information prints its output, rater than returning it. However, I want to get access to the text of the description, or the boxes of the description, or something, to, e.g., put the descriptions of functions in columns or rows. How do I do things like this?

    The output cells are created by CellPrint. You can capture the cell expressions with Block[{CellPrint = Sow}, Reap@Information[ProductLog] ], but I'm not sure that's what you want.

You may use the "PlaintextUsage" or "TypesetUsage"property of WolframLanguageData.



WolframLanguageData["ProductLog", "PlaintextUsage"]


or



WolframLanguageData[ToString@ProductLog, "PlaintextUsage"]


gives




"ProductLog[z] gives the principal solution for w in z[LongEqual]we^w. ProductLog[k, z] gives the k^th solution."



Note the escapes like "[LongEqual]" will evaluate to their symbol in strings in Mathematica/Wolfram Language.



For typeset lines then



WolframLanguageData["ProductLog", "TypesetUsage"][[1, 1]]



Mathematica graphics




Hope this helps.

Single-Malt-Whisky

Image
Fünf verschiedene schottische Single-Malt-Whiskys Als Single-Malt-Whisky oder kürzer Single Malt werden Whiskys bezeichnet, die zwei besondere Bedingungen erfüllen: Sie stammen zum ersten aus einer einzigen Brennerei, sind also kein Verschnitt aus mehreren Whiskysorten (daher Single , deutsch: einzeln). Zum zweiten wird als Getreide ausschließlich gemälzte Gerste verwendet (deswegen Malt , deutsch: Malz). Der Zusatz Single Malt wird als Prädikat verstanden, die so ausgezeichneten Whiskys sind in aller Regel besonders hochwertig. Hinzu kommt ihre besonders lange Lagerung, die Reifungszeit währt oft ein Jahrzehnt und länger. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1 Allgemeines 2 Herkunftsländer 2.1 Schottland 2.2 Irland 2.3 Japan 2.4 Kontinentaleuropa 3 Produktionsschritte 3.1 Mälzen 3.2 Brauen 3.3 Brennen 3.4 Reifung und Finish 3.5 Abfüllung 4 Altersangaben 5 Lagerung von Whiskyflaschen 6 Geschmacksklassifikation 7 Sonstig
