function [x, info] = umfpack_solve (arg1, op, arg2, Control)
%UMFPACK_SOLVE x = A\b or x = b/A

% Example:
%   x = umfpack_solve (A, '\', b, Control)
%   x = umfpack_solve (b, '/', A, Control)
%
% Computes x = A\b, or b/A, where A is square.  Uses UMFPACK if A is sparse.
% The Control argument is optional.
