Contributions summary:Chris primarily contributed to the `mathjs` library by implementing and testing new matrix functions. They added `row` and `column` functions for both `SparseMatrix` and `DenseMatrix` data structures, enhancing the library's matrix manipulation capabilities. These additions involved writing the core function logic and creating comprehensive unit tests to ensure the functions behaved as expected across various scenarios and input validations. This work expands the matrix functionalities, making the library more versatile.
