 ### Properties and Methods

-Setting properties is __not__ recommended as the `Matrix` can become corrupted; e.g., incompatible dimensions, out-of-bounds indexing, etc. In contrast to the strict API above, setting these properties will __not__ result in an `error` being thrown. Accordingly, property modification may introduce silent bugs.
