Is there a Julia implementation? as that from the MATLAB Central File Exchange:

> **[Rank 1 Update for LU factors](https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/100436-rank-1-update-for-lu-factors)**
>
> % This function updates the LU factorization (PA = LU) of a Matrix A following a rank % one update of the matrix A = A + alpha\*y\*z'
