	My professor has just given our programming languages class
	an assignment to write a function (or functions) to perform
	Gaussian Elimination on a series of linear equations.

	Our function must work for matrices where n <= 1000.

	I am almost brand new to lisp and could use a few pointers
	on how to do this.  Does anybody have any suggestions? 
	If anybody has any solutions to similiar problems I would
	appreciate some more info..

	PLEASE NOTE:  I am not looking for complete answers, rather
	I'd like some code-fragments or just general pointers that
	will get me started in the right direction.

	Thanks in advance.
