Follow-up Comment #2:

I think this is probably specific to your system.  First, the 3.6.X series is
deprecated an no longer supported.  It would be better to use the current
stable release which is 3.8.X.

I used the following code as a test case which I infer is similar to what you
did.


A = rand (3, 3);
v1 = eig (A);
v2 = eig (A');
v1 - v2
ans =

  -1.5543e-15
  -2.2204e-16
   5.5511e-17


This is generally within a few eps() of zero so is as good as the machine can
do.
