    // the convergence rate of the conjugate gradients algorithm
    // is proportional to the square root of the condition number.
    //
    // One particularly useful technique for improving the
    // conditioning of a linear system is to precondition it. In its
    // simplest form a preconditioner is a matrix M such that instead
    // of solving Ax = b, we solve the linear system AM^{-1} y = b
    // instead, where M is such that the condition number k(AM^{-1})
    // is smaller than the conditioner k(A). Given the solution to
    // this system, x = M^{-1} y. The iterative solver takes care of
    // the mechanics of solving the preconditioned system and
    // returning the corrected solution x. The user only needs to
    // supply a linear operator.

    // A null preconditioner is equivalent to an identity matrix being
    // used a preconditioner.

    //   i * (Q(x_i) - Q(x_i-1)) / Q(x_i) < q_tolerance.
