+Test state space and transfer function conversion.
+
+Currently, this unit test script is not complete.  Ideally, it would convert
+several random state spaces back and forth between state space and transfer
+function representations, and assert that the conversion outputs are correct.
+As they currently stand, the td04ad and tb04ad functions appear to be buggy from
+time to time.  Therefore, this script can be used to diagnose the errors.
