As someone else already pointed out, Data.Vector can be found in the
vector package.  However, note that the vector package is a
sophisticated implementation designed to be used in code that needs
high performance.  I do not recommend it to someone just starting out
with Haskell.  It also does not support matrices.  If you are just
trying to learn some Haskell, I would suggest first trying to
implement matrix-vector product using the types

  type Vector a = [a]
  type Matrix a = [Vector a]
