##  <Description>
##  Let <A>tbl</A> be an ordinary character table,

##  and <A>grammat</A> the matrix of scalar products of <A>reducibles</A>

##  <Ref Func="Extract"/> tries to find irreducible characters by drawing
##  conclusions out of the scalar products,

##  <P/>
##  The optional argument <A>missing</A> is the maximal number of irreducible
##  characters that occur as constituents of <A>reducibles</A>.
##  Specification of <A>missing</A> may accelerate <Ref Func="Extract"/>.
##  <P/>
##  <Ref Func="Extract"/> returns a record <A>ext</A> with the components
##  <C>solution</C> and <C>choice</C>,
##  where the value of <C>solution</C> is a list <M>[ M_1, \ldots, M_n ]</M>
##  of decomposition matrices <M>M_i</M> (up to permutations of rows)
##  with the property that <M>M_i^{tr} \cdot X</M> is equal to
##  the sublist at the positions <A>ext</A><C>.choice[i]</C> of
##  <A>reducibles</A>,
##  for a matrix <M>X</M> of irreducible characters;
##  the value of <C>choice</C> is a list of length <M>n</M> whose entries are
##  lists of indices.
##  <P/>
##  So the <M>j</M>-th column in each matrix <M>M_i</M> corresponds to
##  <M><A>reducibles</A>[j]</M>, and each row in <M>M_i</M> corresponds to an
##  irreducible character.
##  <Ref Func="Decreased"/> can be used to examine the solution for
