It's usually gonna be easier to tell what went wrong in an ASCII string array than a raw float[]. It's for the human reading/fixing the test.

well you don't read the residual, you plot it. the ASCII plots have limited rendering resolution compared to a proper plotting system, like where you can zoom in and stuff.
