Is there a way to print an Armadillo matrix in gdb?

Question

I'm using gdb to debug my c++ program. I'm using the armadillo numerical library to define my matrices. I have an armadillo matrix defined like so:

mat A = randu<mat>(5,5);

Is it possible to print the whole matrix while using the gdb debugger?

Answer 1

The simplest way is to print directly in gdb, unfortunately no fancy format
