Well, with zero example code and details provided that's going to be a hard
one to get help on ;)
Do you know for a fact you're feeding it a diagonalizable matrix? Does numpy
compute the eigenvals/vects nicely if you test it with the same matrix on its
own (not via excel)? Start testing with a symmetric 2x2 real matrix for which
you can hand-compute the eigenvalues trivially, that might tell you where the
problem is.
Good luck,
