mat1 %* mat2
.PP
.AG mati
matrix or vector.
.RT
matrix product of `mat1' and `mat2'.
.PP
Vector results are returned as vectors, not as (n by 1) or (1 by n)
matrices.
.PP
The last extent of `mat1' must be the same size as the first extent of
`mat2'. Vectors are not oriented, therefore a vector of length n can
multiply an n by n matrix on the left or right.
