Yes, Row and Column are a facade to the "real" data and provide a
different interface to it which presents a different abstraction:
while the Matrix has two dimensions a Row and a Column only have one.

Since you obviously understood the method now I am not sure why you
say your head explodes over this piece of code.

Btw, with a small change you can change storage of data from an Array
to a Hash making the Matrix class better suited for sparse matrices.
And here comes an important aspect of that implementation: only the
Matrix class had to change, there was absolutely no change necessary
for the other three classes!  This shows how Matrix's API isolated
client code from inner workings of this class.  This is what OO is
about.

You'll get used to that - and with a bit of oil the squeaking goes
away as well. ;-)

Kind regards
