 example, taking the mean of a numeric vector is typically a fast
 operation. However, for a very long vector, it may take too long to
 compute the mean, especially if it has to be computed repeatedly (e.g.
 in a loop). If the contents of a vector are not changing, it may make
 sense to cache the value of the mean so that when we need it again, it
 can be looked up in the cache rather than recomputed. In this

+Matrix inversion is usually a costly computation and there may be some

 repeatedly (there are also alternatives to matrix inversion that we will
 not discuss here). Your assignment is to write a pair of functions that
 cache the inverse of a matrix.
