Python - Algorithm to determine if a list is symmetric

Question

So I\'m stuck on this problem where I\'ve been asked to write an function in Python that checks to see if an n-dimensional array (is that what they\'re called?) is \"symmetric\"

Answer 1

Here's an alternative version for the main test:

for i, line in enumerate(matrix):
    for j in range(len(line)):
        if a[i][j] != a[j][i]:
             return False
return True

Of course that all the other answers that advise you to test if the matrix is square hold true.
