No, I was observing that, faced with a matrix multiplication problem, most sensible Python developers would do "apt-get install python-numeric" or equivalent. Trying to do it in pure Python would be the wrong tool for the job. If you think that's a weakness of Python compared to Lisp, then so be it. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
