-Description: Classes and methods for dense and sparse matrices and
-    operations on them using 'LAPACK' and 'SuiteSparse'.
+Description: A rich hierarchy of matrix classes, including triangular,
+   symmetric, and diagonal matrices, both dense and sparse and with
+   pattern, logical and numeric entries.   Numerous methods for and
+   operations on these matrices, using 'LAPACK' and 'SuiteSparse' libraries.
