+  * and slicing. If you already imported the whole Eigen namespace:
+  * \code using namespace Eigen; \endcode
+  * then you are already all set. Otherwise, if you don't want/cannot import
+  * the whole Eigen namespace, the following line:
+  * \code using namespace Eigen::indexing; \endcode
+  * is equivalent to:
