Yeah, but it only does what you want. Nothing involving more
complicated objects like category functions do.

Try to understand how that works then:

from itertools import product
n = 3
S = [-1,1]
for m in product(*[S if i>=j else [0] for i in range(n) for j in range(n)]):
    m = Matrix(n,n,m)
    print m.str()
    print '-'*20

Believe me: this is the kind of stuff that frequent developpers do not
see anymore on sage-devel, and if you don't bring it up it will never
change. My answer, which is just a description of what is going on, is
that you will see upper case in functions which "create a mathematical
object", i.e. a group, a graph, that sort of things, while the methods
applied to them are in lower case.

But basically I was not even conscious of that, even though I have
been applying it for years. So write to sage-devel whenever something
feels wrong.

This "CartesianProduct" AND "cartesian_product" should be removed. But
that's categories, so you never know when that will happen.

Have fuuuuuuuun !
