Code Sample, a copy-pastable example if possible

python a=xr.DataArray(1.234) '{:1.3f}'.format(a) # throws error '{:1.3f}'.format(a.values) # behaves nicely

Problem description

I think it would be useful for repr(a) to return repr(a.values) when a.ndim==0 and perhaps also when a.size==1. For example, this would make such code work: python a=xr.DataArray(range(4)) ' '.join('{:d}'.format(v) for v in a) while currently one has to write python ' '.join('{:d}'.format(v.values) for v in a) I tried to think whether this will break something else but I couldn't think of anything.
