Better output for delayed series

Open tpetricek opened this issue 11 years ago • 1 comments

When a series is delayed, we print (Suppressed). However, for the built-in delayed series, we could actually print the range of the series to make this more useful.

(Or, the printing could get a sub-range with the first and last 10 values and print that - without forcing the evaluation of the whole series - but that's more difficult, because there is no range restriction operation on the index/vector that specifies how many values we want - we can only restrict the range by keys - e.g. dates - and we do not know the time span that we want to output).

In the first instance, we could output "evaluation deferred - call Materialize() to see data", so the message isn't so perplexing.
