+This unsupported package is about a divide and conquer algorithm to compute SVD.
+
+The implementation follows as closely as possible the following reference paper :
+http://www.cs.yale.edu/publications/techreports/tr933.pdf
+
+The code documentation uses the same names for variables as the reference paper. The code, deflation included, is
+working but there are a few things that could be optimised as explained in the TODOBdsvd.
+
+In the code comments were put at the line where would be the third step of the algorithm so one could simply add the call
+of a function doing the last part of the algorithm and that would not require any knowledge of the part we implemented.
+
+In the TODOBdcsvd we explain what is the main difficulty of the last part and suggest a reference paper to help solve it.
+
+The implemented has trouble with fixed size matrices.
+
+In the actual implementation, it returns matrices of zero when ask to do a svd on an int matrix.

+
+Paper for the third part:
