Incorrect. The covariance matrix is calculated with matrix 
multiplication, not element-wise  multiplication. For instance, I 
often work with time series data that is TXN where T > N. 
Couldn't do a calculation with element-wise multiplication in 
that case.

Try using Lubeck's covariance function or checking your results 
with the covariance function in other languages.
