Format intervals with a space after the comma #62

Closed Chris00 closed 2 years ago

Chris00 commented 2 years ago

I was surprised that there was no space after the comma as I think [3.141592e+00, 3.141593e+00] is easier to read than [3.141592e+00,3.141593e+00] so this is to start a discussion on this.

Thank you for the suggestion.

The IEEE 1788 standards are not clear on this point. While I have no plan to change the current formatting, alternative formatting options would be definitely useful.

alternative formatting options would be definitely useful.

Do you mean as features to the library?

unageek commented 2 years ago

Yes, I want some declarative API that allows users to format intervals as they want.

unageek commented 2 years ago

This is just my personal preference, but what I like about the current formatting not having space after comma is that it is easily distinguishable from an array literal.
