numpy.set_printoptions  
numpy.set_printoptions(precision=None, threshold=None, edgeitems=None, linewidth=None, suppress=None, nanstr=None, infstr=None, formatter=None) [source]
 
Set printing options. These options determine the way floating point numbers, arrays and other NumPy objects are displayed.    
Parameters:

precision : int, optional Number of digits of precision for floating point output (default 8). threshold : int, optional Total number of array elements which trigger summarization rather than full repr (default 1000). edgeitems : int, optional Number of array items in summary at beginning and end of each dimension (default 3). linewidth : int, optional The number of characters per line for the purpose of inserting line breaks (default 75). suppress : bool, optional Whether or not suppress printing of small floating point values using scientific notation (default False). nanstr : str, optional String representation of floating point not-a-number (default nan). infstr : str, optional String representation of floating point infinity (default inf). formatter : dict of callables, optional If not None, the keys should indicate the type(s) that the respective formatting function applies to. Callables should return a string. Types that are not specified (by their corresponding keys) are handled by the default formatters. Individual types for which a formatter can be set are: - 'bool'
- 'int'
- 'timedelta' : a `numpy.timedelta64`
- 'datetime' : a `numpy.datetime64`
- 'float'
- 'longfloat' : 128-bit floats
- 'complexfloat'
- 'longcomplexfloat' : composed of two 128-bit floats
- 'numpy_str' : types `numpy.string_` and `numpy.unicode_`
- 'str' : all other strings
 Other keys that can be used to set a group of types at once are: - 'all' : sets all types
- 'int_kind' : sets 'int'
- 'float_kind' : sets 'float' and 'longfloat'
- 'complex_kind' : sets 'complexfloat' and 'longcomplexfloat'
- 'str_kind' : sets 'str' and 'numpystr'
     See also get_printoptions, set_string_function, array2string  Notes formatter is always reset with a call to set_printoptions. Examples Floating point precision can be set: >>> np.set_printoptions(precision=4)
>>> print(np.array([1.123456789]))
[ 1.1235]
 Long arrays can be summarised: >>> np.set_printoptions(threshold=5)
>>> print(np.arange(10))
[0 1 2 ..., 7 8 9]
 Small results can be suppressed: >>> eps = np.finfo(float).eps
>>> x = np.arange(4.)
>>> x**2 - (x + eps)**2
array([ -4.9304e-32,  -4.4409e-16,   0.0000e+00,   0.0000e+00])
>>> np.set_printoptions(suppress=True)
>>> x**2 - (x + eps)**2
array([-0., -0.,  0.,  0.])
 A custom formatter can be used to display array elements as desired: >>> np.set_printoptions(formatter={'all':lambda x: 'int: '+str(-x)})
>>> x = np.arange(3)
>>> x
array([int: 0, int: -1, int: -2])
>>> np.set_printoptions()  # formatter gets reset
>>> x
array([0, 1, 2])
 To put back the default options, you can use: >>> np.set_printoptions(edgeitems=3,infstr='inf',
... linewidth=75, nanstr='nan', precision=8,
... suppress=False, threshold=1000, formatter=None)
