It's usually not a great idea to test exactly how Base prints things.

Thanks for pointing this out!

It's usually not a great idea to test exactly how Base prints things.

Well, this package defines some Base.show methods, this is what is being tested. The problem is that part of the printing is delegated to Base -- of course I'm not going to redefine everything.

Yeah, I meant, maybe it is ok to just test the output for the numbers themselves and rely on that Base prints arrays of numbers reasonably. Anyway, not a big deal.
