40 The basic idea behind the sweep operator is that we can get a
41 matrix A converted to I in a few steps. It is critical that we can
42 figure out the general approach for the algorithm, as doing it in
43 line, i.e. [A|I] => [I|A^*] means we can probably do something a bit
44 more like [A] => [A^*], since the original operations work on a
45 column-by-column basis."
