/**
Factory for convenient construction of 3-d matrices holding <tt>Object</tt> cells.
Use idioms like <tt>ObjectFactory3D.dense.make(4,4,4)</tt> to construct dense matrices,
<tt>ObjectFactory3D.sparse.make(4,4,4)</tt> to construct sparse matrices.
If the factory is used frequently it might be useful to streamline the notation.
For example by aliasing:
<table>
<td class="PRE">
<pre>
ObjectFactory3D F = ObjectFactory3D.dense;
F.make(4,4,4);
...
</pre>
</td>
</table>
