Re: The "loop and a half"

n you call the builtin print(). You can delve into the constituent parts of your favourite Python implementation or the language reference to prove it, but that's no longer simple. "simple and constituent parts" is, quite often, not well-defined.

Re: grapheme cluster library

dictionaries: In Dutch, "ij" (the "long IJ", as opposed to the "greek Y") is generally considered a single letter, or at the very least a single grapheme. There is a unicode codepoint for it (ij), but it isn't widely used. So "vrij" (free) has three graphemes (v r ij) and three or four letters. However, in "bijectie" (bijection), "i" and "j" are two separate graphemes, so this word has eight letters and seven or eight graphemes.

Re: SystemError: error return without exception set

it in a way to make that pretty difficult. Another approach might be not to use the python bindings, but to use whatever other binding are available (say in C?). Then you could try to set things up in the same way and see if an error occurs there and if that error has more information than yours.

Re: scipy

I'm just guessing here, but do you have the latest versions of distutils, setuptools and pip? It's likely that scipy requires newer versions of these than your distribution provides. You may have to upgrade them. Best of luck, Thomas -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
