That argument might have been valid 3 years ago, but as already said
by others,

I wouldn't since I do pretty advanced st

And here we are, it is fallen out of favour. It seems to me to be unwise

for anything, including matrix algebra. OTH, I appreciate your reminder of

There are several packages for matrix algebra. I tried Numeric, numpy and
numarray. All three are very good, but each uses different syntax. Not a
good thing for teaching... So I wrote a little python wrapper (under GPL)
to unify all packages with the same simple
