[Numpy-discussion] The meaning of threshold in numpy.set_printoptions()?

Hi,

The help says.

    threshold : int, optional
        Total number of array elements which trigger summarization
        rather than full repr (default 1000).

But the following code shows that 7 triggers summarization instead of
5. Does anybody know how to interpret the meaning of `threshold`?
Thanks.

In [1]: import numpy as np
   ...: np.set_printoptions(threshold=5)
   ...: print(np.arange(6))
   ...: print(np.arange(7))
   ...:
[0 1 2 3 4 5]
[0 1 2 ..., 4 5 6]
