reads a matrix, which has
been written to the file with write_matrix
, from the file

Each row must have the same number of columns. Empty lines are
ignored.
The reading results are stored in the matrix Matrix

The operator returns the matrix handle MatrixID
of this
matrix. Access to the elements of the matrix is possible e.g.,
with the operator get_full_matrix
.
