[Numpy-discussion] HELP! eig and eigvals hang the python session

[Jose Borreguero]

Hi all,
I don't understand what's going on. Here's my python session:
$ python
>>> from numpy.random import rand
>>> a=rand(3,3)
>>> from numpy.linalg import det,eig
>>> det(a)
0.070796819514446802
>>> eig(a)
and the process freezes here (at least 18minutes from now). I checked with
'top' and python is using all CPU.
Any ideas, please?
jose
