I tried that, and it is of course no problem to iterate over the matrix entries defined in the data file. However, the iterator over substrings seems a lot slower than to read all data into libgap and iterate over the resulting libgap lists. I thought that Python would be at least as clever (i.e., fast) in reading matrix data than GAP.
