`Matrix` should allow floats as elements

[nus-pe-bot]

Description

Often, as a Computing student that may be taking Linear Algebra classes, the matrices we work with may not always have pure Integer values.

It is a big limitation for the student if they cannot input decimal values inside the matrix.

In any Linear Algebra class, there is bound to be matrices with decimal values inside the matrix. In these cases, the Matrix feature will be rendered obsolete as it will not work.

This limitation will likely cause 'occasional inconvenience to some users but they can continue to use the product` that does not require float inputs.

Is this a planned limitation? If so, why?

It is reasonable advice, but not in scope we've designed within v2.1.
