# Description Simplified and improved the usability of namespaces * Added persistent cache to Namespace. Loading a large namespace like EMMO from cache is now almost instant. * Added extend_namespace() utility function. * Simplified the implementation of Namespace, including: - replaced `cachemode` argument with the simple boolean argument `reload` - removed `triplestore_url` argument - added `format` argument for supporting loading ontologies in formats other than turtle * Updated the `Triplestore.bind()` method to make it simpler to use. * Updated the tutorial and improved the description of how namespaces can be used. * Added and improved tests. Added example for simplified SPARQL queries using tripper Namespace. Closes #194 ## Type of change - [ ] Bug fix and code cleanup - [x] New feature - [x] Documentation update - [x] Testing Co-authored-by: Tor S.

tripper.Namespacealready allow working with ontologies using numerical IDs, like EMMO, in a user friendly way. However, it requires that the ontology is downloaded at every invocation, which may have a detrimental impact on performance.Also, some ontologies does not load all its modules by default. This is e.g. the case of EMMO that for instance doesn't load pre-fixed and non-coherent units by default. Hence, by default not all concepts are accessible from the namespace object.
