Hi Paul,

thank you for the patch. I know this is only a utility class so I might
be a bit too picky.

I would expect to get a unit matrix after construction. Ahh it doesn't
have a size yet. Then rows and cols should be properly initialized.

Any reason not to use data.insert(data.end(), _data.begin(),
_data.end())?
The size of _data should be checked, so that it's not too big.

Is this expected? I would treat it as an error.

Why are the arguments to Matrix() passed by reference and these by
value? They are equally const.

If I get it right, this doesn't work when the matrix already had a size
and data. That should work in all cases. It feels strange that a matrix
suddenly changes size. Would it make sense to move that into a static
factory function?

I think these should end with a underscore. And they should be
protected.

Why the temporary vector? I somehow expected something
like (pseudocode):

Matrix r(m.rows, m.cols);

for( int i=0; i<m.data.size(); i++)
	r[i] = m[i]*d;

return r;

That might not be more efficient, but to me it is easier to read.

Reading that makes me think, that it would be nice to be able to do
write 
sum += m1[j][i] * m2[i][j] 

But that might be too much for a utility class. What about an accessor
get(r,c) to remove the need to write down the calculation over and over
again?
sum += m1.get(i,j) + m2.get(j,i)

Stefan
