• add Det() to compute determinants by elimination, from eigenvalues, or by minors and cofactors, with possibility of verbose output.

matlib 0.7.3

• Changed gaussianElimination() by defining local ERO functions to make the algorithm clearer; in verbose mode, show each ERO.
• Added a draw argument to vectors3d() and arrows3d(), which defaults to TRUE. If FALSE, just returns returns the “reg.length” to help in scaling.
• Optionally scale error spheres (and circles) produced by regvec3d() so that they project confidence intervals on the x1 and x2 axes.
• Small cosmetic changes to regvec3d().
