Description

Hello,

I got this error really often:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'L' of null
at SparseMatrixNumberNumber (math.js:23661)
at generic (math.js:32708)
at Object.slu (math.js:32727)

Any idea on how i could avoid getting those?

Research direction

The report points to slu in math.js, with the stack trace passing through SparseMatrixNumberNumber and generic. Start by obtaining the matrix inputs that reproduce the TypeError, then inspect those entry points and add a regression case. Done means slu handles the reported valid input without throwing.
