Arrays/Vectors should have a .pretty for consistency #8

Closed dsimcha closed 13 years ago

dsimcha commented 13 years ago

E.g. if I want to see the result from this code:

import scid.matvec, std.stdio;

void main() {
    auto m = Matrix!double([[1.0, 2, 3], [4.0, 5, 6], [7.0, 8, 9]]);
    auto stuff = m * m[][0];
     writeln(eval(stuff).pretty);
 }

I just realized that toString() works on these objects. Even so, I think a .pretty for consistency would be nice even if all it does is forward to toString(). If you're thinking of getting rid of .pretty for matrices, feel free to ignore this.

I might make .pretty show column vectors on multiple lines later. For now I made it just an alias for toString().
