## @deftypefn {Function File} {@var{s} =} spaugment (@var{A}, @var{c})
## Create the augmented matrix of @var{A}.  This is given by
##
## @example
## @group
## [@var{c} * eye(@var{m}, @var{m}), @var{A};
##             @var{A}', zeros(@var{n}, @var{n})]
## @end group
## @end example
##
## @noindent
## This is related to the least squares solution of
## @code{@var{A} \ @var{b}}, by
##
## @example
## @group
## @var{s} * [ @var{r} / @var{c}; x] = [ @var{b}, zeros(@var{n}, columns(@var{b})) ]
## @end group
## @end example
##
## @noindent
## where @var{r} is the residual error
##
## @example
## @var{r} = @var{b} - @var{A} * @var{x}
## @end example
##
## As the matrix @var{s} is symmetric indefinite it can be factorized
## with @code{lu}, and the minimum norm solution can therefore be found
## without the need for a @code{qr} factorization.  As the residual
## error will be @code{zeros (@var{m}, @var{m})} for under determined
## problems, and example can be
##
## @example
## @group
## m = 11; n = 10; mn = max (m, n);
## A = spdiags ([ones(mn,1), 10*ones(mn,1), -ones(mn,1)],
##              [-1, 0, 1], m, n);
## x0 = A \ ones (m,1);
## s = spaugment (A);
## [L, U, P, Q] = lu (s);
## x1 = Q * (U \ (L \ (P  * [ones(m,1); zeros(n,1)])));
## x1 = x1(end - n + 1 : end);
## @end group
## @end example
##
## To find the solution of an overdetermined problem needs an estimate
## of the residual error @var{r} and so it is more complex to formulate
## a minimum norm solution using the @code{spaugment} function.
##
## In general the left division operator is more stable and faster than
## using the @code{spaugment} function.
