cachematrix.R

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

makeCacheMatrix <- function(x = numeric()) {
  s <- NULL
  set <- function(y) {
    x <<- y
    s <<- NULL
  }
  get <- function() x
  setsolve <- function(solve) s <<- solve
  getsolve <- function() s
  list(set = set, get = get,
       setsolve = setsolve,
       getsolve = getsolve)
}


## The function first checks to see if the inverse has already been calculated.
## If it so, it gets the inverse from the cache and skips computation.
## Otherwise, it calculates the inverse of the matrix and stores it in the cache.

cacheSolve <- function(x, ...) {
  s <- x$getsolve()
  if(!is.null(s)) {
    message("cached data")
    return(s)
  }
  data <- x$get()
  s <- solve(data, ...)
  x$setsolve(s)
  s
}
