cachematrix.R

## This pair of functions will cache the inverse of a matrix

## This function creates a special "matrix" object that can cache its inverse.

makeCacheMatrix <- function(x = matrix()) {
        inv <- NULL
        set <- function(y) {
                inv <<- NULL
                x <<- y
        }
        get <- function() x
        setinverse <- function(inverse) inv <<- inverse
        getinverse <- function() inv
        list(set = set,
             get = get,
             setinverse = setinverse,
             getinverse = getinverse)
}

## This function computes the inverse of the special "matrix" returned by
## `makeCacheMatrix` above. If the inverse has already been calculated
## (and the matrix has not changed), then `cacheSolve` should retrieve
## the inverse from the cache.

cacheSolve <- function(x, ...) {
        inv <- x$getinverse()
        if(!is.null(inv)) {
                message("getting cached data")
                return(inv)
        }
        data <-x$get()
        inv <- solve(data, ...)
        x$setinverse(inv)
        inv
