str.tostring

Renders a value as a string. One overload takes a number and one takes a bool. There is no format argument: the call takes the value and nothing else.

str.tostring(series bool source) → series string

str.tostring(series float source) → series string

str.tostring(simple bool source) → simple string

str.tostring(simple float source) → simple string

Returns series string or simple string — The value as text. Where the value is na this returns the two characters NA rather than going absent - the one place in this namespace where na does not propagate.

indicator("The close as text")
alert(str.tostring(close))
plot(close)
