Newbie here. Trying to generate eigenvalues from a matrix using:
print numpy.linalg.eigvals(matrix)
This works with small matrices, say 5 x 5, but causes python to crash on larger
matrices, say 136 x 136, which is not really very large.
Setup:
Win XP SP2
Python 2.5.1 (from .msi)
numpy 1.0.4 (from .msi)
pywin32-210 (from .exe installer)
When running from either the command line or the Pythonwin IDE, python.exe
crashes. The info in the microsoft error reporting thingy is:
AppName: python.exe
ModName: lapack_lite.pyd
Offset: 000b7434
Stepping through linalg.py using Pythonwin, I get as far as line 418 (in the
eigvals function):
results = lapack_routine('N', 'N', n, a, n, wr, wi,
dummy, 1, dummy, 1, work, lwork, 0)
and then python.exe crashes.
That's the extent of my troubleshooting skills at this stage. I haven't worked
out if there is a specific matrix size where this starts occurring. Where to
now?
I can send the actual data for the matrix if need be, but as it's very large I
thought it would mess up the list if I posted it here.
