Matrix to Coordinates Data Conversion from Multiple Matrix Formats to Reimann Coordinate Systems

Description
This application (2.1) will take any N x N matrix and create a coordinate system (Reimann space) based on similarities of the objects. The resulting "coordinates" work such that the closer two objects are the more similar they are. Although the program will handle any size data your system memory will allow; the calculation time will vary based on the depth of dimensionality chosen. This version, unlike M2C 1.0(C), uses the Brandes & Pich (2007) MDS algorithm. 2.1 Update : The rotation method was removed due to errors.
