[PYTHON MATRIX-SIG] Linear Algebra

[Hinsen Konrad]

   quite right.  Please keep sending these sorts of comments so that I can  
   figure out what the linear algebra types want (except for * <-->  
   matrixMultiply) and implement it properly.

Let's start with something easy: transpose().
It should work for arrays of any rank and reverse the shape.

A useful addition would be an optional argument that is
a list (or tuple or array) representing a permutation of
range(len(x.shape)). That would allow an arbitrary reshuffling
of axes.

I'll send some comments on multiplication later. For now just
that: Multiply() and Dot() are really one and the same function,
if done correctly.
