Greetings,
My work mostly deals with matrices and am curious if C++ committee
is planning on introducing a STL matrix class? I beleive there is a
large community of engineers who would be need of such a class.
Thank you,

The valarray/slices combination can be used for matrix computations, so
this is already covered by the current C++ standard. But I'd recommend
the Boost ublas library since a matrix class on its own is pretty
useless. ([url]http://www.boost.org/libs/numeric/ublas/doc/index.htm)[/url].
