I am trying to run Julia code from Python using `PyJulia`. I am confused about how should I run

```julia
mat = SMatrix{2, 2}([1 2; 3 4])

```

in Python? I was trying

```python
from julia import StaticArrays as sa

mat = sa.SMatrix{2, 2}([1 2; 3 4])

```

and as I expected, I get the error

```nohighlight
*** SyntaxError: invalid syntax

```

Any idea what I should do?

Thanks in advance!
