# The +Matrix+ class represents a mathematical matrix, and provides methods for creating
# special-case matrices (zero, identity, diagonal, singular, vector), operating on them
# arithmetically and algebraically, and determining their mathematical properties (trace, rank,
# inverse, determinant).
#
# Note that although matrices should theoretically be rectangular, this is not
# enforced by the class.
#
# Also note that the determinant of integer matrices may be incorrectly calculated unless you
# also <tt>require 'mathn'</tt>.  This may be fixed in the future.
