Houdini Matrix Tool - Python

The tool allows the user to more easily work with matrices inside Houdini. The user is able to define a matrix using the new "defMatrix" node and then plug it in the "matrixOperations" node to perform various mathematical operations like: addition, subtraction, multiplication and scalar multiplication. The result is being stored as a detail attribute for easy access later on.
