Sergiu,

Thanks for the response. I have grabbed the fixinddent code and tried it out on a copy of matrices.py. It does 'fix' some stuff in the dual_matrix() method, but the resulting code does not pass python's indentation daemon, who is ever lurking. Clean code is clearly my objective but so far I have not seen just what silliness is being committed...

Thanks for trying to code and reporting what you saw.

    For me, Python chews rather happily the piece of code you have shown.
    I have even tried dual_matrix(None) to get an error (obviously).

    However, I have noticed that, at times, you use spaces for indenting,
    and at times there are tabs.  For example, line 21 is indented using a
    tab, while line 22 is indented with spaces only; lines 25 and 26 are
    indented with spaces at first and then with tabs, etc.  While I don't
    have any trouble getting this code to run, I distinctly remember that
    mixing spaces and tabs caused me some problems in a different
    language.

    This guy [0] says that mixing spaces and tabs can be bad, too :-)

You might want to consider using "geany" as an editor. It automatically converts tabs to spaces (go to the edit preferences tabs for the editor and files).
