Question: Order of eigenvectors and values

Hi again, I am having trouble resolving the issue of which eigenvector is 1st, 2nd 3rd etc. The need is for diagonalization because the eigenvectors are the columns and the eigenvalues as you know are the diagonal entries in the A matrix. Does it make any difference in what order the vectors are placed in the columns? TIA Larry Ciak aka malt_master
