//! Decompositions for matrices.
//!
//! This module houses the decomposition API of `rulinalg`.
//! A decomposition - or factorization - of a matrix is an
//! ordered set of *factors* such that when multiplied reconstructs
//! the original matrix. The [Decomposition](trait.Decomposition.html)
//! trait encodes this property.
//!
//! # The decomposition API
//!
//! Decompositions in `rulinalg` are in general modeled after
//! the following:
//!
//! 1. Given an appropriate matrix, an opaque decomposition object
//!    may be computed which internally stores the factors
//!    in an efficient and appropriate format.
//! 2. In general, the factors may not be immediately available
//!    as distinct matrices after decomposition. If the user
//!    desires the explicit matrix factors involved in the
//!    decomposition, the user must `unpack` the decomposition.
//! 3. Before unpacking the decomposition, the decomposition
//!    data structure in question may offer an API that provides
//!    efficient implementations for some of the most common
//!    applications of the decomposition. The user is encouraged
//!    to use the decomposition-specific API rather than unpacking
//!    the decompositions whenever possible.
//!
//! For a motivating example that explains the rationale behind
//! this design, let us consider the typical LU decomposition with
//! partial pivoting. In this case, given a square invertible matrix
//! `A`, one may find matrices `P`, `L` and `U` such that
//! `PA = LU`. Here `P` is a permutation matrix, `L` is a lower
//! triangular matrix and `U` is an upper triangular matrix.
//!
//! Once the decomposition has been obtained, one of its applications
//! is the efficient solution of multiple similar linear systems.
//! Consider that while computing the LU decomposition requires
//! O(n<sup>3</sup>) floating point operations, the solution to
//! the system `Ax = b` can be computed in O(n<sup>2</sup>) floating
//! point operations if the LU decomposition has already been obtained.
//! Since the right-hand side `b` has no bearing on the LU decomposition,
//! it follows that one can efficiently solve this system for any `b`.
//!
//! It turns out that the matrices `L` and `U` can be stored compactly
//! in the space of a single matrix. Indeed, this is how `PartialPivLu`
//! stores the LU decomposition internally. This allows `rulinalg` to
//! provide the user with efficient implementations of common applications
//! for the LU decomposition. However, the full matrix factors are easily
//! available to the user by unpacking the decomposition.
//!
//! # Available decompositions
//!
//! **The decompositions API is a work in progress.**
//!
//! Currently, only a portion of the available decompositions in `rulinalg`
//! are available through the decomposition API. Please see the
//! [Matrix](../struct.Matrix.html) API for the old decomposition
//! implementations that have yet not been implemented within
//! this framework.
