introduction

This module provides Python rendering functionality. It can render a dictionary such that it is displayed with indentations for illustration of hierarchy:

sample information:
  name: ttH
  generator: pythia8
  cross section: 0.055519
  variables:
    zappo_n: 9001
    trk_n: 147
  number of events: 124883
  k factor: 1.0201
  ID: 169888

It can render and display logos:

  ____      _            _____ _
 / ___|___ | | ___  _ __|  ___| | _____      __
| |   / _ \| |/ _ \| '__| |_  | |/ _ \ \ /\ / /
| |__| (_) | | (_) | |  |  _| | | (_) \ V  V /
 \____\___/|_|\___/|_|  |_|   |_|\___/ \_/\_/

It can center blocks of text for terminal output (such as in a way shown for the logo above). It can render segment displays:

 _     _  _     _  _  _  _  _
| |  | _| _||_||_ |_   ||_||_|
|_|  ||_  _|  | _||_|  ||_| _|

It can render and display tables of various specified widths and column widths with various text wrapping features and delimiters:

It can provide color palettes, extend them and save images of them. Color palettes available can be viewed by saving images of them:

pyprel.save_images_of_palettes()

A palette can be loaded using its name:

pyprel.access_palette(name = "palette1")

A palette of colors can be extended to a required number of colors:

colors_1_extended = extend_palette(
    colors                          = colors_1,
    minimum_number_of_colors_needed = 15
)
