The C++ Matrix class is available via anonymous ftp from `ftp.cs.ucla.edu'.
Get the compressed tarfile `pub/Matrix.tar.Z'.  Uncompress `Matrix.tar.Z'.
Extract the `Matrix' directory from `Matrix.tar'.  Then go to the `Matrix'
directory and type `make'.  Now print and read the paper in `Matrix.dvi'.

In order to demonstrate an application of the \verb"Matrix" class,
it was used to implement the backward error propagation algorithm
for multi-layer, feed-forward artificial neural networks.

Enjoy, Bob Tisdale (edwin@cs.ucla.edu)

P.S.  I hope the following notes will be helpful.

      If you have trouble, verify that the `SYS5' variable
      in the `Matrix/src/genclass' shell script contains
      the path to the System V version of the `m4' macro
      pre-processor.
      The `fig2dev' program is part of the `transfig' package
      available via anonymous ftp from `ftp.cs.cornell.edu'.
      Get `pub/transfig/transfig.tar.Z'.
      The EPIC style file is available via anonymous ftp from
      `ymir.claremont.edu'. Get `tex/inputs/latex-contrib/epic.sty'.
      File `pub/Matrix.sun.tar.Z' includes all the files created by
      `make' on UCLA CSD Sun4 computers.  It may be useful to Sun
      computer users or those who just want to print the documentation.
