Cleve,

There are a few  Matlab functions  from some toolboxes available for 
free download on the internet that I want to port to Java using JAMA,  
which require the use of :

[Q,R,E] = QR(A) ;

One such function is  "solve.m"  which is called by  another function  
"manova.m" where I want to port into Java  from the "Linstats" toolbox , 
and is available from  Matlab Central.

Cheers,
Sione.
