  |<br>'''[[Template:in5]]''' - count must be 1-50 spaces,<!--

}}<noinclude><!--endif >50 -->
<br>The indenter '''Template:in5''' indents text by 5 spaces or
the count specified by<br>parameter 1 (range: 1 to 50 spaces).
<br><br>
:: Usage: &nbsp; {<font/>{in5}} {{in5}} <--indents by 5 spaces<br>
:: Usage: &nbsp; {<font/>{in5|8}} &nbsp; &nbsp; <--indents by 8 spaces<br>
:: Usage: &nbsp; {<font/>{in5|47}} &nbsp;&nbsp;<--indents by 47


Spaces outside the double braces will add an extra space on either
{{Documentation}}
side,<br>such as the 12 spaces inserted by: " {<font/>{in5|10}} ".
 
NOTE: The name "in5" was chosen because other names were debated, such as<br> the name "in" being redefined as 6 different uses.
 
==Examples==
The following are examples showing larger amounts of spacing:
:: Example 1: <nowiki>xx{{in5|10}}yy{{in5|10}}</nowiki>zz, produces: xx{{in5|10}}yy{{in5|10}}zz
:: Example 2: <nowiki>xx{{in5|10}}yy{{in5|15}}</nowiki>zz, produces: xx{{in5|10}}yy{{in5|15}}zz
:: Example 3: <nowiki>aa{{in5|20}}bb{{in5|20}}</nowiki>cc, produces: aa{{in5|20}}bb{{in5|20}}cc
:: Example 4: <nowiki>"32.0{{in5|7}}"</nowiki>&nbsp; produces: "32.0{{in5|7}}"
The example 4 shows the ability to put trailing spaces, such as spaces after a number in a wikitable column (coded as: |&nbsp;32.0{<font/>{in5}}&nbsp;). Typical numbers (with "align=right"), in a table column, often appear crowded at the right-hand side, so appending "{<font/>{in5}}" can improve readability, in tables with lines between columns.
 
==Universal template==
This Template:in5 is intended as a universal template, with the same name on all Wikipedia sites. The name "in5" with the digit "5" is unlikely to conflict with other-language Wikipedias. Care must be taken not to name a universal template with a name that would be an awkward or peculiar word in the other languages. However, in some cases, a universal template might need a different name in a few conflicting languages.
 
==Comparison with Template:spaces==
There are other templates that insert spaces, although none had allowed 50 spaces. For example, the&nbsp;[[Template:spaces]] has had a limit of about 15 spaces (during 2009-2010):
{| class=wikitable style="margin-left:40px"
| valign=top | Example of <nowiki>{{spaces|10}}</nowiki><br>and...<br>with <nowiki>{{spaces|14}}</nowiki><br>with <nowiki>{{spaces|15}}</nowiki><br>with <nowiki>{{spaces|25}}</nowiki> || <nowiki>xx{{spaces|10}}</nowiki>yy, produces:<br>xx{{spaces|10}}yy<br>xx{{spaces|14}}yy<br>xx{{spaces|15}}yy<br>xx{{spaces|25}}yy
|-
| valign=top | Example of <nowiki>{{in5|10}}</nowiki><br>and...<br>with <nowiki>{{in5|14}}</nowiki><br>with <nowiki>{{in5|15}}</nowiki><br>with <nowiki>{{in5|25}}</nowiki><br>with <nowiki>{{in5|45}}</nowiki> || <nowiki>xx{{in5|10}}</nowiki>yy, produces:<br>xx{{in5|10}}yy<br>xx{{in5|14}}yy<br>xx{{in5|15}}yy<br>xx{{in5|25}}yy<br>xx{{in5|45}}yy
|}
Again, using {<font/>{in5}} reliably allows up to 50 spaces at a time.
 
==Performance==
Template {in5} generates a mix of &amp;nbsp; and spaces to avoid the space compression done by the [[MediaWiki]] parser. Each &nbsp is stored inside the formatted page (such as seen by the browser option: &lt;View>&lt;Source>). The output is optimized to be the shortest possible markup language for spaces, in a variety of different browsers.
 
Typically, {in5} runs much faster than [[Template:spaces]], generating 1/3 the markup per use (as 72% less text, over 50 fewer characters each time). Also, {in5} allows 50 spaces, whereas {spaces} has been limited to 15 spaces during 2009-2010.

--------------------------------------------------------------
--NOTES:
--
-- NOTE A1: This template inserts 5 or the specified count
--      of spaces. Currently, the count can be 1 to 50.
--      A recursive implementation could call {{in5}} again,
--      to handle each 10 spaces, as: {{in5|{{{1}}}-10}};
--      however, that could become dangerous if the template
--      were edited by novices unaware of recursion dangers.
--
-- NOTE E2: To improve efficiency, the logic was rewritten to
--      output groups of 10 spaces, followed by 1-10 for the
--      remaining spaces of n - floor(n/10)*10. There were
--      several improvements (18Dec2010):
--      * The expansion nesting was reduced from 4 levels to 2.
--      * The if-logic was reduced to 6 steps: 1 switch, not 5.
--      * The template size was reduced by 60% less coding.
--
-- NOTE N3: The nesting level of this template is only 2 levels
--      deep of the MediaWiki "expansion depth limit" (was 40
--      levels as the expansion limit during 2008-2010).

--HISTORY:
-- 14Mar09 Created as numbered-space indentation tool.
-- 02May09 For stand-alone display used includeonly-tag.
-- 02May09 Set for "Category:Formatting templates".
-- 24Sep09 Re-created as renamed to "in5" after TfD debate.
-- 25Sep09 Fixed/removed 2 sets of "{{" 20min after update.
-- 31Oct09 Put "Comparison" showing limit as {{spaces|15}}.
-- 18Dec10 Rewrote as 4 groups of 10 spaces & switch 1-10.
-- 18Dec10 Rewrote as +1 level of "expansion limit" (was +3).
-- 18Dec10 Added "Performance" description to doc text.
