numpy arbitrary precision linear algebra

Question

I have a numpy 2d array [medium/large sized - say 500x500]. I want to find the eigenvalues of the element-wise exponent of it. The problem is that some of the values are qui

Answer 1

As far as I know, numpy does not support higher than double precision (float64), which is the default if not specified.

Try using this: http://code.google.com/p/mpmath/
