<title>Description</title>
<para>
Hypermatrix type allows to manipulate multidimensional arrays</para>
<para>
They can be defined by extension of 2D matrices as follows
a=[1 2;3 4];a(:,:,2)=rand(2,2)</para>
<para>
or directly using <literal>hypermat</literal> function</para>
<para>
Entries can be real or complex numbers, polynomials,
rationals, strings, booleans.</para>
<para>
Hypermatrices are <literal>mlists</literal>:
<literal>mlist(['hm','dims','entries'],sz,v)</literal> where <literal>sz</literal> is the row
vector of dimensions and <literal>v</literal> the column vector of entries (first
dimension are stored first)</para>
<para>NOTES: The number of dimension of hypermatrices with right-most sizes equal to
1 are automatically reduced. An hypermatrix with only two dimensions is
automatically changed to a regular matrix (type 1).</para>
