In my role as an engineering professor and instructor, I find linear algebra to 
be essential. To my knowledge, almost any book on engineering mathematics 
contains a large section on linear algebra.

numpy is an extremely useful package, but is overwhelming for some novices 
(e.g. dealing with the complexity of various broadcasting rules and indexing 
methods). 

So, if the python standard library had a matrix type and associated 
capabilities to do basic operations, it would help me as an instructor.
