/// Include <glm/gtx/pca.hpp> to use the features of this extension.
///
/// Implements functions required for fundamental 'princple component analysis' in 2D, 3D, and 4D:
///   1) Computing a covariance matrics from a list of _relative_ position vectors
///   2) Compute the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the covariance matrics
/// This is useful, e.g., to compute an object-aligned bounding box from vertices of an object.
/// https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principal_component_analysis
///
/// Example:
/// ```
/// std::vector<glm::dvec3> ptData;
/// // ... fill ptData with some point data, e.g. vertices
/// 
/// glm::dvec3 center = computeCenter(ptData);
/// 
/// glm::dmat3 covarMat = glm::computeCovarianceMatrix(ptData.data(), ptData.size(), center);
/// 
/// glm::dvec3 evals;
/// glm::dmat3 evecs;
/// int evcnt = glm::findEigenvaluesSymReal(covarMat, evals, evecs);
/// 
/// if(evcnt != 3)
///     // ... error handling
/// 
/// glm::sortEigenvalues(evals, evecs);
/// 
/// // ... now evecs[0] points in the direction (symmetric) of the largest spatial distribuion within ptData
/// ```
