Matrix Syntax
------------------
A = [1,2,3,4]
    creates a new matrix
A(1)
    selects the first element of a matrix, **zero-indexed**
B = [ [1,2,3], [4,5,6], [7,8,9] ]
    creates a one dimensional matrix

::

    B = [ [1,2,3],
        [4,5,6],
        [7,8,9] ]

    creates a two dimensional matrix

Matrix Operations
------------------
``inv`` 
    inverts a square matrix

Meta-Commands
------------------
Placing a semicolon at the end of a line prevents the output from being printed to screen.

``whos``
