cmp(x,y) must return -1, 0, or 1 which doesn't work on arrays with more than 1 element because it is ambiguous. Thus you get this error.
Ah. Since lists *can* be compared, I assumed arrays would inherit that property.
The operation is undefined. What do you actually want to do when you have equal-valued eigenvalues?
Don't care. All I really need is the four highest eigenvalues and their vectors. I'll have a look in "Python Cookbook" to see if there's a more efficient way to do that partial sort. -- Anton Sherwood, http://www.ogre.nu/
