onion (version 1.5-0)

onionmat: Onionic matrices

Description

Simple functionality for quaternionic and octonionic matrices, intended for use in the jordan package. Use idiom like matrix(Him,4,5) or matrix(roct(6),2,3) to create an onionmat object, a matrix of onions.

The package is intended to match base R's matrix functionality in the sense that standard R idiom just goes through for onionic matrices. Determinants are not well-defined for quaternionic or octonionic matrices, and matrix inverses are not implemented.

newonionmat(d, M)
onionmat(data = NA, nrow = 1, ncol = 1, byrow = FALSE, dimnames = NULL)

Details

An object of class onionmat is a two-element list, the first of which is an onion, and the second an integer matrix used for tracking attributes such as dimensions and dimnames. This device makes the extraction and replacement methods easy.

The S4 method for matrix() simply dispatches to onionmat(), which is a drop-in replacement for matrix().

Function newonionmat() is lower-level: it also creates onionmat objects, but takes two arguments: an onion and a matrix; the matrix argument can be used to specify additional attributes via attr(), but this ability is not currently used in the package.

Functions such as onionmat_plus_onionmat() are low-level helper functions, not really designed for the end-user.

Vignette onionmat shows some use-cases.

Examples

matrix(rquat(28),4,7)

M <- onionmat(rquat(10),2,5)
cprod(M) 

Re(M)
Re(M) <- 0.3

romat() %*% rquat(6)
