Echelon form of a matrix
A m X n matrix is in reduced row echelon form if it satisfies the following properties:
1. If there are any zero rows, they must be at the bottom of the matrix.
2. The first nonzero entry from the left of a nonzero row is a 1, which is also called the leading one of that row.
