`LinearOperator.``matmat`(X)

  Matrix-matrix multiplication.

  Performs the operation y=A*X where A is an MxN linear operator and X dense N*K matrix or ndarray.

  Parameters: | X : {matrix, ndarray} An array with shape (N,K).
  Returns: | Y : {matrix, ndarray} A matrix or ndarray with shape (M,K) depending on the type of the X argument.

  Notes

  This matmat wraps any user-specified matmat routine or overridden _matmat method to ensure that y has the correct type.
