Show

A trait for providing an alternative to toString. USing this trait can be convenient, but at some level of the inheritance the type must provide a ShowT type class instance. It is better for the ShowT type class instance to delegate to this trait than have the toString method delegate to the ShowT type class instance in the companion object. Potentially that can create initialisation order problems, but at the very least it can increase compile times. The capabilities of decimal place precision and explicit typing for numbers are placed defined here and in the corresponding SHowT type class although they have n meaning / purpose for many types, as seperating them adds enormous complexity for very little gain.
