Sorry to self reply, but ...
Octave's results for lu() Strang's LDL' factorization not work (right around
the pages mentioned below), which is basically A = L * diag(diag(U)) * L' for a
symmetric positive definite matrix.
Also, I am sure there is a ton of theory behind all this that I don't know; if
I did, I might think my questions naive... A link would be awesome, but I
don't expect anyone to write up a lecture (though I would read it if they
did....)
