[Numpy-discussion] numpy pprint?

[Foad Sojoodi Farimani]

Wow, this is awesome.
Some points though:

   - not everybody uses IPython/Jupyter having the functionality for
   conventional consols would also help. something like
   Sypy's init_printing/init_session which smartly chooses the right
   representation considering the terminal.
   - I don't think putting everything in boxes is helping. it is confusing.
   I would rather having horizontal and vertical square brackets represent
   each nested array
   - it would be awesome if in IPython/Jupyter hovering over an element a
   popup would show the index
   - one could read the width and height of the terminal and other options
   I mentioned in reply Mark to show L R U P or combination of these plus some
   numbers (similar to Pandas .head .tail) methods and then show the rest by
   unicod 3dot

P.S. I had no idea our university Microsoft services also offers Azure
Notebooks awesome :P
