Package ramify provides additional matrix functionality and tools including: (1) wrappers for the base matrix function that allow matrices to be created from character strings and lists (the former is especially useful for creating block matrices), (2) the generic "pretty print" function pprint for printing large matrices to the screen or console, and (3) a number of convenience functions for users more familiar with other scientific languages like Julia, MATLAB/Octave, or Python+NumPy.
