Triangular Dense Logical Matrices

Description

The "ltrMatrix" class is the class of triangular, dense, logical matrices in nonpacked storage. The "ltpMatrix" class is the same except in packed storage.

Slots

x:

Object of class "logical". The logical values that constitute the matrix, stored in column-major order.

uplo:

Object of class "character". Must be either "U", for upper triangular, and "L", for lower triangular.

diag:

Object of class "character". Must be either "U", for unit triangular (diagonal is all ones), or "N"; see triangularMatrix.

Dim,Dimnames:

The dimension (a length-2 "integer") and corresponding names (or NULL), see the Matrix class.

factors:

Object of class "list". A named list of factorizations that have been computed for the matrix.

Extends

Both extend classes "ldenseMatrix" and "triangularMatrix", directly; further, class "Matrix", "lMatrix" and others, indirectly. Use showClass("ltrMatrix"), e.g., for details.

Methods

Currently, mainly t() and coercion methods (for as(.); use, e.g., showMethods(class="ltpMatrix") for details.

Examples

showClass("ltrMatrix")

str(new("ltpMatrix"))
(lutr <- as(upper.tri(matrix(,4,4)), "ltrMatrix"))
str(lutp <- as(lutr, "ltpMatrix"))# packed matrix: only 10 = (4+1)*4/2 entries
!lutp ## the logical negation (is *not* logical triangular !)
## but this one is:
stopifnot(all.equal(lutp, as(!!lutp, "ltpMatrix")))
