You should try to avoid matrix inversion altogether if that's the case.
For instance you shouldn't invert a matrix just to solve a linear system.

What then?

Cramer's rule?

If you really want to know just about everything there is to know
about a matrix, take a look at its Singular Value Decomposition (SVD).

I know a bit about SVD - I used it for a short period of time in Matlab, though I'm definately not an expert in it and I don't understand the whole theory with orthogality behind making it work so elegant as it is/does work out.

I've never used numpy, but I assume it can compute an SVD.

I'm making my first steps now with numpy, so there's a lot I don't know and haven't tried with numpy...
