 Sage likes rows better than columns.  This constructor follows suit, but
 then takes a transpose.  So if input entries are given as a list of lists,
 or a list of vectors, the inner lists get turned into columns when it is
 finished.

 Inputs are just like for the `matrix()` constructor, except dimensions
 effectively get swapped around.  When giving just one dimension, it will
 be the number of columns, which is perhaps as it should be.
