I've noticed different behaviour in Mathematica between matrix representation: The matrix

a={{1,2},{3,4}}
is different from 
b=a // MatrixForm

Why i obtain different results using the same matrix in command like Eigensystem? What kind of definition should i use in my programs?

Ok, i've solved the problem, but i've edited the question to understand better the difference – asdf May 28 '13 at 12:34
