Hi,
I guess, if you are interested in effective and more complex matrix
computations, you might have a look at numpy:
http://www.numpy.org/
Is the following the result you expect? (it seems so, based on the
(added) output of your posted code, but its incompatible with the
example in the first post).

>>> import numpy
>>> a=numpy.array([4,5])
>>> b=numpy.array([6,7])
>>> b*b+a
array([40, 54])
>>>

hth,
