/** Matrix class. 

    \ingroup LinearAlgebraModule 

    This is the basic class for all linear algebra computations. Matrices are
    stored in a <i>column-major</i> format, i.e. the row index is varying fastest.
    This is the same format as in the lapack and gmm++ libraries, so it will
    be easy to interface these libraries. In fact, if you need optimized
    high performance code, you should use them. The VIGRA linear algebra
    functionality is provided for smaller problems and rapid prototyping
    (no one wants to spend half the day installing a new library just to
    discover that the new algorithm idea didn't work anyway).
