            WHAT THIS OBJECT REPRESENTS
                This object represents something that can compute a classical
                QR decomposition of an m-by-n real valued matrix A with m >= n.  

                The QR decomposition is an m-by-n orthogonal matrix Q and an 
                n-by-n upper triangular matrix R so that A == Q*R. The QR decomposition 
                always exists, even if the matrix does not have full rank, so the 
                constructor will never fail.  The primary use of the QR decomposition 
                is in the least squares solution of non-square systems of simultaneous 
                linear equations.  This will fail if is_full_rank() returns false or
                A is very nearly not full rank.

                The Q and R factors can be retrieved via the get_q() and get_r()
                methods. Furthermore, a solve() method is provided to find the
                least squares solution of Ax=b using the QR factors.

                dlib/matrix/matrix_abstract.h file.   (e.g. a dlib::matrix object)

            WHAT THIS OBJECT REPRESENTS
                This object represents something that can compute an eigenvalue 
                decomposition of a real valued matrix.   So it gives 
                you the set of eigenvalues and eigenvectors for a matrix.   

                Let A denote the input matrix to this object's constructor.  Then 
                what this object does is it finds two matrices, D and V, such that
                    - A*V == V*D
                Where V is a square matrix that contains all the eigenvectors
                of the A matrix (each column of V is an eigenvector) and
                D is a diagonal matrix containing the eigenvalues of A.


                It is important to note that if A is symmetric or non-symmetric you
                get somewhat different results.  If A is a symmetric matrix (i.e. A == trans(A))
                then:
                    - All the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of A are real numbers. 
                        - Because of this there isn't really any point in using the
                          part of this class's interface that returns complex matrices.
                          All you need are the get_real_eigenvalues() and
                          get_pseudo_v() functions.  
                    - V*trans(V) should be equal to the identity matrix.  That is, all the
                      eigenvectors in V should be orthonormal. 
                        - So A == V*D*trans(V)
                    - If DLIB_USE_LAPACK is #defined then this object uses the xSYEV LAPACK
                      routine.

                On the other hand, if A is not symmetric then:
                    - Some of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors might be complex numbers.  
                        - An eigenvalue is complex if and only if its corresponding eigenvector 
                          is complex.  So you can check for this case by just checking 
                          get_imag_eigenvalues() to see if any values are non-zero.  You don't 
                          have to check the V matrix as well.
                    - V*trans(V) won't be equal to the identity matrix but it is usually
                      invertible.  So A == V*D*inv(V) is usually a valid statement but
                      A == V*D*trans(V) won't be.
                    - If DLIB_USE_LAPACK is #defined then this object uses the xGEEV LAPACK
                      routine.
