// This class defines the interface for storing and manipulating
// sparse matrices. The key property that differentiates different
// sparse matrices is how they are organized in memory and how the
// information about the sparsity structure of the matrix is
// stored. This has significant implications for linear solvers
// operating on these matrices.
//
// To deal with the different kinds of layouts, we will assume that a
// sparse matrix will have a two part representation. A values array
// that will be used to store the entries of the sparse matrix and
// some sort of a layout object that tells the user the sparsity
// structure and layout of the values array. For example in case of
// the TripletSparseMatrix, this information is carried in the rows
// and cols arrays and for the BlockSparseMatrix, this information is
// carried in the CompressedRowBlockStructure object.
//
// This interface deliberately does not contain any information about
// the structure of the sparse matrix as that seems to be highly
// matrix type dependent and we are at this stage unable to come up
// with an efficient high level interface that spans multiple sparse
// matrix types.
