/** \class Block
  *
  * \brief Expression of a fixed-size or dynamic-size block
  *
  * \param MatrixType the type of the object in which we are taking a block
  * \param BlockRows the number of rows of the block we are taking at compile time (optional)
  * \param BlockCols the number of columns of the block we are taking at compile time (optional)
  * \param _PacketAccess allows to enforce aligned loads and stores if set to ForceAligned.
  *                      The default is AsRequested. This parameter is internaly used by Eigen
  *                      in expressions such as \code mat.block() += other; \endcode and most of
  *                      the time this is the only way it is used.
  * \param _DirectAccessStatus \internal used for partial specialization
  *
  * This class represents an expression of either a fixed-size or dynamic-size block. It is the return
  * type of MatrixBase::block(int,int,int,int) and MatrixBase::block<int,int>(int,int) and
  * most of the time this is the only way it is used.
  *
  * However, if you want to directly maniputate block expressions,
  * for instance if you want to write a function returning such an expression, you
  * will need to use this class.
  *
  * Here is an example illustrating the dynamic case:
  * \include class_Block.cpp
  * Output: \verbinclude class_Block.out
  *
  * \note Even though this expression has dynamic size, in the case where \a MatrixType
  * has fixed size, this expression inherits a fixed maximal size which means that evaluating
  * it does not cause a dynamic memory allocation.
  *
  * Here is an example illustrating the fixed-size case:
  * \include class_FixedBlock.cpp
  * Output: \verbinclude class_FixedBlock.out
  *
  * \sa MatrixBase::block(int,int,int,int), MatrixBase::block(int,int), class VectorBlock
