Matrix (version 1.2-8)

ddiMatrix-class: Class "ddiMatrix" of Diagonal Numeric Matrices

Description

The class "ddiMatrix" of numerical diagonal matrices. Note that diagonal matrices now extend sparseMatrix, whereas they did extend dense matrices earlier.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("ddiMatrix", ...) but typically rather via Diagonal.

Slots

Extends

Class "diagonalMatrix", directly. Class "dMatrix", directly. Class "sparseMatrix", indirectly, see showClass("ddiMatrix").

Methods

See Also

Class diagonalMatrix and function Diagonal.

Examples

(d2 <- Diagonal(x = c(10,1)))
str(d2)
## slightly larger in internal size:
str(as(d2, "sparseMatrix"))

M <- Matrix(cbind(1,2:4))
M %*% d2 #> `fast' multiplication

chol(d2) # trivial
stopifnot(is(cd2 <- chol(d2), "ddiMatrix"),
          all.equal(cd2@x, c(sqrt(10),1)))
