Well, I'm not sure, to tell you the truth. The user who
inquired here was doing some kind of biomechanic modeling
using tensors, and he said he needed to multiply two 3D
matrices. I'm not sure what multiplication *means* in a
case like that. For one thing, it seems ambiguous. I've
been hoping that if I saw some code, it would all become
crystal clear... :-)
