Orthogonalize in Python. Which package?
I need to orthogonalize vectors in Python. I have found so far only algorithms.orthogonalize.
Nevertheless, it looks like "algorithms" is a kind of a package (module?) I cannot find to install. Has anybody done an orthogonalization? Please, advice me a nice package/module for this procedure. I am quite new in Python.

numpy.linalg.qr turns out to be the best option to orthogonalize vectors, since the vectors I consider vectors with complex components. And if one does it with the orthogonalize method mentioned above, then one LOSES the complex parts!

That package is part of the Spectral Python project.
The orthogonalize method is documented here:
Performs Gram-Schmidt Orthogonalization on a set of vectors
It is installable via pip and easy_install.
