ADA> I ask is because there seem to be some 300 entries
in the OEIS using digits and evalf ..

A search in the database lists 5691 entries which use
Mathematica's 'RealDigits'.

I think this means that an overwhelming majority of
contributors has the understanding that a program should
produce a list and not a constant.

In fact the programs do produce almost always both: first
the constant and then the list of digits. So there is no
real antagonism.

But there should be a unique specification, not one for
Maple programs and another for Mathematica programs.
