I didn't put words in your mouth, I simply quoted emails you sent to the list and gave my interpretation of what you wrote. >>> Before denigrating a programming language > > If some one has a quick way I would like to learn from them or get a > referecence > where the formatting part is described which was > my intention while posting here.

Unfortunately there is no "format the thing as I wish" function. If you wish to format numpy arrays preceding them with a variable name, the following is a possible solution that gives the same formatting as in your example: import numpy as np import sys def format(out, v, name): header = "{} = ".format(name) out.write(header) np.savetxt(out, v, fmt="%d", delimiter=", ", newline="\n" + " " * len(header)) out.write("\n") IL = np.array([range(5), ] * 5) format(sys.stdout, IL, "IL") Cheers, Daniele _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
