Hello,
I have a few questions about the function RowReduce.
Please see the attached NoteBook
Thank You for answer

Mathematica-Compatible Notebook
This notebook can be used on any computer system with Mathematica 4.0,
MathReader 4.0, or any compatible application. The data for the notebook
starts with the line containing stars above.
To get the notebook into a Mathematica-compatible application, do one of
the following:
* Save the data starting with the line of stars above into a file
with a name ending in .nb, then open the file inside the application;
* Copy the data starting with the line of stars above to the
clipboard, then use the Paste menu command inside the application.
Data for notebooks contains only printable 7-bit ASCII and can be
sent directly in email or through ftp in text mode. Newlines can be
CR, LF or CRLF (Unix, Macintosh or MS-DOS style).
NOTE: If you modify the data for this notebook not in a Mathematica-
compatible application, you must delete the line below containing the
word CacheID, otherwise Mathematica-compatible applications may try to
use invalid cache data.

The function RowReduce perform a Gauss-Jordan reduction putting
1 on the \"diagonal\" and 0 elsewhere so long it is possible. But is there
an other function (or an option for RowReduce) performing a simple
Gauss reduction i.e. putting 0 ONLY UNDER the first diagonal ?
By the way I saw there is an option \"Method\" for the function.\
