ENH: add option chop_threshold to control display of small numerical values as zero · Pull Request #2739 · pandas-dev/pandas (original) (raw)

It does what I asked - Thanks!

There is one improvement I think we could make. Assuming I have set the precision option to 5, when displaying a chopped entry near other data in scientific format (something like 2.54443e-03), the chopped value will display as0.00000e+00. It would be nice if it just printed 0 instead of '0.' + '0' * precision + 'e+00'.

A side note, is there a way to control if things are printed in scientific format (with the e's)?
