//! # Claw Contraption
//!
//! Each claw machine is a system of two linear equations:
//!
//! ```none
//!     (Button A X) * (A presses) + (Button B X) * (B presses) = Prize X
//!     (Button A Y) * (A presses) + (Button B Y) * (B presses) = Prize Y
//! ```
//!
//! Shortening the names and representing as a matrix:
//!
//! ```none
//!     [ ax bx ][ a ] = [ px ]
//!     [ ay by ][ b ] = [ py ]
//! ```
//!
//! To solve we invert the 2 x 2 matrix then premultiply the right column.
