I have one question related to terminology.

The command echelon form seems to produce the reduced row echelon
form.

Isn't row echelon form something like matrix([[1,1,1],[0,1,1],
[0,0,1]]) ?

I think that this is confusing in Sage. Or are in English "row echelon
form" and "reduced row echelon form" equivalent?
