When I use numpy.__doc__ in IDLE under Win XP, I get a heap of words
without reasonable line breaks.
"\nNumPy\n=====\n\nProvides\n 1. An array object of arbitrary
homogeneous items\n 2. Fast mathematical operations over arrays\n 3.
Linear Algebra, Fourier Transforms, Random Number
...
Is there a way to get this formated properly.
If I use dir(numpy), I get yet a very long list that starts as:
['ALLOW_THREADS', 'BUFSIZE', 'CLIP', 'DataSource', 'ERR_CALL',
'ERR_DEFAULT', 'ERR_DEFAULT2', 'ERR_IGNORE', 'ERR_LOG', 'ERR_PRINT',
'ERR_RAISE', 'ERR_WARN', 'FLOATING_POINT_SUPPORT', 'FPE_DIVIDEBYZERO',
'FPE_INVALID', 'FPE_OVERFLOW', 'FPE_UNDERFLOW', 'False_', 'Inf',
'Infinity', 'MAXDIMS', 'MachAr', 'NAN', 'NINF', 'NZERO', 'NaN', 'PINF',
'PZERO', 'PackageLoader', 'RAISE', 'RankWarning', 'SHIFT_DIVIDEBYZERO',
'SHIFT_INVALID', 'SHIFT_OVERFLOW', 'SHIFT_UNDERFLOW', 'ScalarType',
'Tester', 'True_', 'UFUNC_BUFSIZE_DEFAULT'
...
I see this might be a dictionary. What can I do to make it more readable
or useful, or is that it? Is there a more abc as in Linux?
It the IDLE shell, it's not possible to retrieve lines entered earlier
without copying them. Is there an edit facility?
