Your condition number is 5.5043e+21, and the matrix is singular to the
machine precision, so perhaps you want to write
octave_idx_type info;
double rcond;
Matrix Y = X.inverse (info, rcond);
if (info != 0)
error ("Matrix singular to machine precision with a reciprocal
condition number of %e", rcond)
else
{
// Do the rest of your calculation
}
