I defined a vector space V generated by a list of independent matrices and
I
would like them to be its basis. The few examples I worked out always
confirmed that the list used to define V coincides with the list generated
by the command Base.
is that really always the case?

Set ba:=Base(V) (by the way, I noticed that Basis(V) is not recognized).
Trying to determine the Coefficients of v in V wrt ba as
Coefficients(ba,v), I got an error message, and trying with
Coefficients(V,v) I get a list containing scalars AND the zero matrix in
V.
Is there a way to get only scalars?

Bye, Andreas
