For times this small, I wonder if timing comparisons are valid. I do NOT think SciPy is in general an order of magnitude faster than Matlab for the task typically performed with Matlab. > > After taking the first difficult steps into Python, > all kind of small problems as you already know, > it nows seems a piece of cake to convert from MatLab to Python. > (the final programs of MatLab and Python can almost only be > distinguished by the comment character ;-) > > Especially I like: > - more relaxed behavior of exceeded the upper limit of a (1-dimensional) > array Could you explain what this means? In general, I don't want a programming language to be "relaxed" about exceeding array bounds. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
