The basic_lite the function linear_least_squares
begins with the statements:
a = asndarray(a)
b = asndarary(b)
These cause produce an error:
File "C:\Python24\lib\site-packages\scipy\basic\basic_lite.py",
line 414, in linear_least_squares
a = asndarray(a)
NameError: global name 'asndarray' is not defined
