\subsection{midpointmode}
\label{labmidpointmode}
\noindent Name: \textbf{midpointmode}\\
\phantom{aaa}global variable controlling the way intervals are displayed.\\[0.2cm]
\noindent Library names:\\
\verb| void sollya_lib_set_midpointmode_and_print(sollya_obj_t)|\\
\verb| void sollya_lib_set_midpointmode(sollya_obj_t)|\\
\verb| sollya_obj_t sollya_lib_get_midpointmode()|\\[0.2cm]
\noindent Usage:
\begin{center}
\textbf{midpointmode} = \emph{activation value} : \textsf{on$|$off} $\rightarrow$ \textsf{void}\\
\textbf{midpointmode} = \emph{activation value} ! : \textsf{on$|$off} $\rightarrow$ \textsf{void}\\
\textbf{midpointmode} : \textsf{on$|$off}\\
\end{center}
Parameters:
\begin{itemize}
\item \emph{activation value} enables or disables the mode.
\end{itemize}
\noindent Description: \begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{midpointmode} is a global variable. When its value is \textbf{off}, intervals are displayed
as usual (in the form $\left[ a;b\right]$).
When its value is \textbf{on}, and if $a$ and $b$ have the same first significant digits,
the interval in displayed in a way that lets one immediately see the common
digits of the two bounds.
\item This mode is supported only with \textbf{display} set to \textbf{decimal}. In other modes of
display, \textbf{midpointmode} value is simply ignored.
\end{itemize}
\noindent Example 1:
\begin{center}\begin{minipage}{15cm}\begin{Verbatim}[frame=single]
> a = round(Pi,30,RD);
> b = round(Pi,30,RU);
> d = [a,b];
> d;
[3.1415926516056060791015625;3.1415926553308963775634765625]
> midpointmode=on!;
> d;
0.314159265~1/6~e1
\end{Verbatim}
\end{minipage}\end{center}
