Matrix constructor

public Matrix([a:Number], [b:Number], [c:Number], [d:Number], [tx:Number],
[ty:Number])
Creates a new Matrix object with the specified parameters. In matrix notation the properties
will be organized like this:
If you do not provide any parameters to the new
matrix" with the following values:
a = 1
c = 0
tx = 0
776 ActionScript classes
b = 0
d = 1
ty = 0
constructor it creates an "identity
