Re: [Numpy-discussion] Zero row in SVD's unitary matrix on some Mac's

And indeed, I get a 0 row as the last row of the V**H matrix

I just double-checked things one last time and saw that I actually hadn't changed the first argument of zgesdd to "A" in the program that I actually ran. So with this change, I get a nonzero last row of the V**H matrix from the C call to zgesdd. So everything is consistent between the C call to zgesdd and the numpy svd call. So now my remaining question is: if the Lapack docs only say that V**H is the full n-by-n matrix if M>=N, why is numpy returning it even if M<N? Thanks, Jason
