Spacing for groups of g statements
When groups of g statements are placed side by side, Quantum does not leave any spaces in between the two unless you tell it to. This can be done in one of two ways:
▪Insert the number of spaces required at the start of the headings on the second group of g statements.
▪Put an ampersand (&) on the end of each of the first group of g lines in the column in which the texts from the second group are to start.
For example:
/* Second g-block will start in column marked &
g Base Single Married Divorced Widowed &
g ---- ------ ------- -------- ------- &
p x x x x x
gArea 1 Area 2 Area 3
g------ ------ ------
p x x x
is the same as:
/*Second g-block starts with 3 spaces to separate col 5 from col 6
g Base Single Married Divorced Widowed
g ---- ------ ------- -------- -------
p x x x x x
g Area 1 Area 2 Area 3
g ------ ------ ------
p x x x
