 It would be great to have a matrices namespace to put special matrix
 commands, sort of like the graphs.* namespace or groups.* namespace.  Here
 are some starter definitions:

 {{{
 def hilbert(R,n): return matrix(R, n, lambda i,j: 1/(i+j+1))
 def vandermonde(R, v): return matrix(R, len(v), lambda i,j: v[i]^j)
 def toeplitz(R,c,r): return matrix(R, len(c), len(r), lambda i,j: c[i-j]
 if i>=j else r[j-i])
 def hankel(R,c,r): entries=c+r[1:]; return matrix(R, len(c), len(r),
 lambda i,j: entries[i+j])
 def circulant(R,E): return hankel(R, E, E[-1:]+E[:-1])
 }}}

 Additionally, we could use scipy to create more matrices (or do it
 ourselves): http://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/linalg.html#special-
 matrices
