Julia has support for sparse vectors and [sparse matrices](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparse_matrix)
in the `SparseArrays` stdlib module. Sparse arrays are arrays that contain enough zeros
that storing them in a special data structure leads to savings in space and execution time,
compared to dense arrays.
