The test I gave is a test that is needed that justifies the existence of 
resize at all. Otherwise we could just use zeros() instead in 
tril/triu.. Comparse to output of rand(4) and rand(4,1) .... Therefore 
in a certain logic (probably the one I use when I wrote resize) resize 
(arg, n) == resize(arg, n, n) makes sense compared to the output of 
zeros(4), ones(4), rand(4), etc...
