MATLAB provides functions we have not discussed in the book that implement sparse system solvers for general matrices. In this problem, you will investigate two such algorithms.

 The bi-method is a
-type method. The bi- method generates two sets of residual sequences,

_i
 and

_i
 which are biorthogonal (Problem 2.13). Two sets of direction vectors,

_i
 and

_i
 are computed from the residuals. The function bicg implements the algorithm. Try it with the matrix TOLS1090 from the software distribution. Preconditioning is necessary.

 The
 method applies to general matrices and functions by working with a nonsymmetric tridiagonal matrix. Repeat part
 using qmr.
