New space prefixing string output of floating point array scalars

[matthew-brett]

I guess this is to do with the new numpy scalar formatting stuff, but this seems a bit odd - and broke our doctests:

In [5]: str(np.array(1/3.))
Out[5]: ' 0.33333333'

In [6]: np.__version__
Out[6]: '1.14.0.dev0+569c591'

Notice the space before the first 0 in the output string. This isn't present with released numpy:

In [3]: str(np.array(1/3.))
Out[3]: '0.333333333333'

In [4]: np.__version__
Out[4]: '1.13.1'

Is it intended?

Yep, 1.14dev is unstable in this regard - there are a bunch of PRs related to this can of worms, none of which have yet been merged.

All fixed now
