	It's a trite saying but:

	How would you perform this vector multiplication by hand? Write down
the steps... Now convert those steps into Python code.

	Or -- download/install something like NumPy and recode your program
using NumPy vector types which should support the needed
multiplications.
 
>>> import numpy
>>> a = numpy.array(	(2.78, 3.14, 1958)	)
>>> b = numpy.array(	(1.5, 2.0, 1.0)	)
>>> 
>>> a*b
array([    4.17,     6.28,  1958.  ])
>>> a.dot(b)
1968.45
>>>
