Dear experts, How can I intercept this error. Traceback (most recent call last): File "himanshu.py", line 175, in ? w = linalg.eig(A,B,left=0,right=0) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/site-packages/scipy/linalg/decomp.py", line 109, in eig return _geneig(a1,b,left,right,overwrite_a,overwrite_b) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/site-packages/scipy/linalg/decomp.py", line 60, in _geneig if info>0: raise LinAlgError,"generalized eig algorithm did not converge" scipy.linalg.basic.LinAlgError: generalized eig algorithm did not converge I am using linalg.eig several times within a loop and I would like to continue the computation. A small scipy code would be appreciated. What is the reason for this convergence problem ? Thanks in advance Nils
