Hi,

I'm trying to use the "inverse_matrix" function. The matrix doesn't have 
any missing values, but I still get this error message:

    Variable: M
    Type: float
    Total Size: 1600 bytes
                 400 values
    Number of Dimensions: 2
    Dimensions and sizes:    [pertlev | 20] x [tendlev | 20]
    Coordinates:
                 pertlev: [50..1950]
                 tendlev: [50..1950]
    Number Of Attributes: 2
       missing_value :    9.96921e+36
       _FillValue :    9.96921e+36

I thought it might have something to do with those zero values, but if I 
replace them with non-zero values I get a similar, but not identical, 
result:

    ...
