<div class="block">This class defines a linear operator operating on real (<code>double</code>)
vector spaces. No direct access to the coefficients of the underlying matrix
is provided.
The motivation for such an interface is well stated by
<a href="#BARR1994">Barrett et al. (1994)</a>:
<blockquote>
We restrict ourselves to iterative methods, which work by repeatedly
improving an approximate solution until it is accurate enough. These
methods access the coefficient matrix A of the linear system only via the
matrix-vector product y = A &middot; x
(and perhaps z = A<sup>T</sup> &middot; x). Thus the user need only
supply a subroutine for computing y (and perhaps z) given x, which permits
full exploitation of the sparsity or other special structure of A.
