There’s a lot of useful information - including the usage of format - in
the Guile 1.8 manual:

Re: Get value of Scheme function to display as a markup in Lilypond
Thank you both for the information.
I wasn't aware of the formatted output to be honest.
\markup #(format #f "result = ~a" (dostuff 47))
This line of code doesn't make any sense to me currently but when I get
into more complex stuff I'll try to understand it. Right now I'm trying to
build up a sensibility for basic programming principles because this is my
first attempt at programming. Lilypond is so important to me that I need to
be able to craft some solutions by myself.
Best,
Dimitris

It's OK if this has to be broken into multiple steps.
One option is to format the output you want as a string and then include
that in \markup:
#(define (dostuff x) (+ x 5))
\markup #(format #f "result = ~a" (dostuff 47))
If you just need the value, you could use number->string. But for
anything fancier, the formatted printing functionality is quite powerful
and worth learning:
\markup #(format #f "~{~a fish~^, ~}." '(one two red blue))

Hello Kees,
Look here: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.23/Documentation/changes/
This is a new feature in the current Lilypond development version.

Re: Get value of Scheme function to display as a markup in Lilypond
Hello Dimitris,
Basically you need to turn the output into a form markup takes, that is either
a markup or a string. In your case the return would be a number, so you’d want
to call
\markup #(number->string (dostuff x))
Cheers,
Valentin

Get value of Scheme function to display as a markup in Lilypond
Finally got to learn a bit of Scheme. I've made decent progress within the
Scheme sandbox. Now I'm trying to integrate a few things within Lilypond.
Let's say I have this function:
#(define (dostuff x) (+ x 5))
What would be the equivalent of #(display (dostuff 2)) but inside a
Lilypond markup?
So that if my Lilypond music code looks like that, I'll get the correct
value from that function.
{
c^\markuptitle (placeholder) #2
}
I don't want the x argument to be displayed in the markup but rather the
result of the function.
It's OK if this has to be broken into multiple steps.

If it suits, you could try and adapt the attached.

For a shorter notation on paper... don't think so, never seen any notation
using mid-repeat alternatives.
For less repetition of music in your source you could use
partB = { B }
defined as a variable and the actual music changed to
\repeat volta 2 { A } \alternative { { a1 \partB } { a2 \partB } }
or
\repeat volta 2 { A } \alternative { { a1 \partB } { a2 } } \partB
HTH
alternate in middle of repeat
I have a \repeat volta 2 { music}, but a few bars inside "music" are
different the second time through.
Is there a way to do something like this:
\repeat volta 2 { A \alternative {{a1}{a2}} B}

Hello, I'm sorry but I have not the possibility to connect remotely! The error message say that you (the installation program) has gotten a write error when it tries to write these files to the disk. The probable cause is that some other program has opened the files and locked them. Anti-virus is one of these programs. But you tried to disable you anti-virus and got the same error.

You can also do this less specifically:
\layout {
\boxify Staff.MeasureCounter
}
should affect all contexts that respond to an _alias_ of "Staff" which
includes RhythmicStaff .
