It would be nice to be able to specify a type. Perhaps
R.[1,2,3;2,3,4] -> Matrix(R,[[1,2,3],[2,3,4]])
or perhaps even
R[1,2,3;2,3,4]
Another option would be:
[QQ: 1,2,3; 4,5,6]
or, as Robert suggests:
[1,2,3; 4,5,6, base_ring=QQ] -- but then it looks like base_ring=QQ is
another element.
As a side note, I guess if QQ^2 gives the vector space over QQ, then
QQ^(2,3) should give the matrix space over QQ of 2x3 matrices (I don't
think it does now, but that would be nice if it did).
Thanks,
Jason
