Trouble installing MatPy

[ananth]

Chad,

Thanks for the help.  Now something is happening instead of
nothing..but still woes.

After doing what u prescribed, here is what happens:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Python22\Lib\MatPy\tests\test_all.py", line 8, in ?
    from MatPy.tests import __all__
  File "C:\Python22\lib\site-packages\MatPy\__init__.py", line 39, in
?
OverflowError: (34, 'Result too large')

>>> (I run all_tests.py again)
['test_basic', 'test_linear', 'test_slice', 'test_block',
'test_shape', 'test_cross', 'test_multiply', 'test_scalar',
'test_tensor', 'test_gplot', 'test_efuncs', 'test_mfuncs',
'test_probs', 'test_sfuncs', 'test_transpose', 'test_compare',
'test_sutils', 'test_kalman']

======================================================================
Running test_basic.py ... 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Python22\Lib\MatPy\tests\test_all.py", line 13, in ?
    __import__(name)
ImportError: No module named test_basic
