The plus + operator is used by Swift for array concatenation. This caused some confusion with Surge's + element-wise addition. For this version all element-wise operators are preceded by a dot: .+.

This version also updates to Swift 4.0 and adds a few extra functions.

It took a while but it's finally here. This version support Swift 3.2 and Xcode 9.

Other changes include:

• Fix Matrix initialization bug
• Add Swift Package Manager support
• Fix Carthage support.
• Make rows and columns properties public
• Add sum of square values.
• Add some helper methods for matrix
• Add subscript support to return specific row or column
• Add support for scaling matrix by row or by column
• Make pow support applying to every element
• Add subtract method and operator

This release is the last version to support Swift 1.0. Surge 2.x releases will support Swift 2.0.
