Yes, I definitely used the same python distribution. 
What perhaps is of interest to you is that I experienced different 
tolerances in the Python IDLE of producing these arrays (3-5 arrays), while 
with Spyder, it was either one or a maximum of two arrays, that could be 
created. So in all cases, I was able to create a higher number of arrays 
with IDLE than with Spyder. Now, with the 64-bit version, I have no 
problems creating a large number of arrays also in Spyder.
Cheers,
Patrick
