Hi Stéfan,
I will do, thanks for the feedback. Just give me a week or two, until I
get comfortable with it. Not that I expand the parameter description now
and redo it in two weeks time when I got a better handling and
understanding of it.
Taking the opportunity for another question: Is it possible to create
`LinearOperator`s with more than one input variable, and provide it to,
e.g., `bigstabc`?
Thanks,
Dieter
