For most of the problems in chapter 6 the matrices are small so that you
can see how to implement the algorithms by hand.  You can certainly use
the armadillo, GSL, BLAS/LAPACK, but you will want to know how to do the
work by hand for upcoming tests.

For my problem the main algorithm you need is matrix multiplication (in
both REAL and COMPLEX) forms.  I recommend at some point you write your
own matrix multiplication algorithm -- but you can certainly use any of
the libraries for my problems.
