.. py:class:: StructureNumericView(obj: httk.atomistic.structure_like.StructureLike, **hints: Any)

   Bases: :py:obj:`httk.atomistic.structure_view.StructureView`, :py:obj:`httk.atomistic.numeric_structure.NumericStructure`


   A view presenting an underlying structure backend as a ``NumericStructure``.

   This view is a genuine ``NumericStructure``, so it can be passed anywhere one is accepted. Its
   exact ``Structure`` is built eagerly from the backend's quartet on construction. Like a
   ``NumericStructure`` it requires numpy (raising :class:`ImportError` otherwise).


   .. py:method:: unwrap() -> Any

      Return the most raw representation possible of this view, i.e., if it uses a backend with an internal representaion -
      or if it can (possibly lossly) convert itself into a more raw representation that still would be recognized as a <Something>Like type,
      that representation will be returned. If this is not possible, the instance itself is returned.
