Hmm... It appears I was being dense (or a perfectionist) as I couldn't
define a generic instance of
Functor for all Matrices generalised over Array type. Of course the
solution is just to define an instance
for each array type...

Here's the latest version ... now smaller with the Floating instance
removed, but an instance of Functor added,
and a better Show instance (that generates valid Haskell using the
constructor functions provided)... Have also
removed the Matlab style "scalar" by "matrix" operations, so to multiply
a scalar by each element use fmap
(or mmap)

    fmap (+1) matrix

I guess in the end it's just more Haskell like - even if it is harder to
read than the Matlab code.

    Keean.
