Monadic Examples - Convert Numbers to Strings/Character vectors: 

      A←⎕TS   ⍝assign the current Time Stamp to variable A
      A       ⍝display A's value
2015 2 25 16 21 52 128     ⍝ Yr Mo Day Hr(24 hr clock) Min Sec Millisecs
      ⍴A      ⍝date-time stamp vector has 7 elements
7
      ⍕A      ⍝monadic format A (converts A from 7 element numeric vector into a 22 character string
2015 2 25 16 21 52 128
      ⍴⍕A
22

      B←32.10958 0 ¯101.4914     ⍝variable B is assigned 3 numbers
      ⍴B

      B
32.10958 0 ¯101.4914
      ⍕B                        ⍝format B converts the 3 numbers into a 20-character string

Dyadic Example - Convert Numbers to Strings(with column width/reserved # spaces AND rounding to # decimal places):

 32.10958    0     ¯101.4914
