nj.array with un-fixed shape

[Huan Li]

I do not know if sometimes the data array has the un-standarded shape, like the following code:

const a = nj.array([0, [1, 2], [2, 3], [[4, [5, 6]]], 4])
console.log(a.shape) // Output: [ 5 ]

My question is: a.shape will be calculated only with the first-row element.

Should I never use this kind of un-fixed shape?

since the purpose of this lib is linear algebra, the shape has to be fixed (like it is in numpy)

Thanks, you are right.
