Any way to make Sage display large matrices all in 1 line?

Hi all,

Currently I have this code that generates large matrices.

B = BooleanPolynomialRing(25,'x', order = 'degneglex')
from sage.rings.polynomial.toy_variety import coefficient_matrix
from brial import *
v = BooleanPolynomialVector()
l = [B.random_element(degree = 3, terms = 4) for j in range(25)]
_ = [v.append(e) for e in l]

from sage.rings.polynomial.toy_variety import coefficient_matrix
print l
%time A, v = Sequence(l,B).coefficient_matrix()
print A
print v

The matrix generated is big, so big that it takes 2 lines to display all of it. It is hard to visualise. Is there some way of making each row of the matrix inline together such that they are not separated into different lines?

Are you working in the Sage REPL (read-eval-print loop), also known as the command-line interface (in a terminal), or in the Jupyter Notebook, or in the SageNB notebook, or in SageTeX, or other?

Hi, thanks for the reply. My laptop in my office has Sage in it and is running on SageNB. However, I also use CoCalc online by starting a new Sage worksheet. Not sure if it makes a difference, but all the better if I can get both formats to display matrices correctly.

Here is a silly answer, along with hopefully less silly ones.

Silly answer: just make the font size small enough so lines fit in the screen's width:

Less silly: the visualize_structure method gives a graphical view of the nonzero positions:

sage: A.visualize_structure()

Imgur

Listing nonzero positions in each row is also a sensible (and copy-pasteable) way to visualize the matrix:

sage: dict((i, A.nonzero_positions_in_row(i)) for i in range(A.nrows()))
{0: [0, 7, 14, 67],
 1: [13, 85, 86, 93],
 2: [4, 11, 12, 38],
 3: [8, 16, 40, 75],
 4: [3, 32, 39, 78],
 5: [22, 47, 58, 79],
 6: [5, 26, 57, 68],
 7: [44, 65, 81, 87],
 8: [37, 88, 90, 91],
 9: [6, 46, 52, 84],
 10: [36, 43, 61, 95],
 11: [9, 20, 49, 92],
 12: [33, 34, 45, 71],
 13: [27, 50, 56, 69],
 14: [25, 41, 55, 72],
 15: [1, 19, 23, 30],
 16: [17, 64, 73, 80],
 17: [24, 48, 60, 74],
 18: [54, 70, 76, 83],
 19: [10, 18, 21, 51],
 20: [29, 35, 94, 97],
 21: [31, 42, 62, 96],
 22: [15, 53, 77, 98],
 23: [2, 59, 82, 89],
 24: [3, 28, 63, 66]}

One could also skip the whitespace by custom printing the matrix as follows:

sage: for row in A:
....:     print(''.join([str(a) for a in row]))
....:

or, replacing zeros by dots:

sage: for row in A:
....:     print(''.join([str(a) if a else '.' for a in row]))
....:
1......1......1....................................................1...............................
.............1.......................................................................11......1.....

........1.......1.......................1..................................1.......................
...1............................1......1......................................1....................

.....................................1..................................................1.11.......
......1.......................................1.....1...............................1..............
....................................1......1.................1.................................1...
.........1..........1............................1..........................................1......
.................................11..........1.........................1...........................
...........................1......................1.....1............1.............................
.........................1...............1.............1................1..........................
.1.................1...1......1....................................................................
.................1..............................................1........1......1..................
........................1.......................1...........1.............1........................
......................................................1...............1.....1......1...............
..........1.......1..1.............................1...............................................
.............................1.....1..........................................................1..1.
...............................1..........1...................1.................................1..
...............1.....................................1.......................1....................1
..1........................................................1......................1......1.........
...1........................1..................................1..1................................

The above can be obtained in a simpler way, starting from the matrix's str and using replace once:

sage: print(A.str().replace(' ', ''))

I do not know about cocalc, but on sagenb and jupyter you can simply do:

show(A)

Or, if you want to see dots on the nonzero indices:

plot(A)

Or, if you want to see the matrix in a pdf file:

view(A)

Slight improvement: matrix_plot(A) displays the dots in a frame, as would plot(A, axes=False, frame=True).
