[Numpy-discussion] how do I specify maximum line length when using savetxt?

[Mark Bakker]

I guess I wasn't explicit enough.
Say I have an array with 100 numbers and I want to write it to a file
with 6 numbers on each line (and hence, only 4 on the last line).
Can I use savetxt to do that?
What other easy tool does numpy have to do that?
Thanks,
Mark

If you specify the format, %10.3f for instance, you will know the max
line length if you also know the array shape.

Probably 1000 ways to accomplish the same thing out there, sure.
