Class "matrix.coo" – Sparse Matrices in [Coo]rdinate Format

Class for sparse matrices stored in coordinate aka “triplet” format, storing for each non-zero entry x[i,j] the triplet (i,j, x[i,j]), in slots (ia, ja, ra).

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("matrix.coo", ...), but typically rather by as.matrix.coo().

Slots

ra:

Object of class numeric, a real array of nnz elements containing the non-zero elements of A.

ja:

Object of class integer, an integer array of nnz elements containing the column indices of the elements stored in `ra'.

ia:

Object of class integer, an integer array of nnz elements containing the row indices of the elements stored in `ra'.

dimension:

Object of class integer, dimension of the matrix

Examples

 try(  new("matrix.coo") ) # fails currently {FIXME!}     # the 1x1 matrix [0]
#> Error in validObject(.Object) : 
#>   invalid class “matrix.coo” object: invalid dimension attribute

 ## correponds to base  matrix()
 mcoo <- new("matrix.coo", ra=NA_real_, ia = 1L, ja = 1L, dimension = c(1L, 1L))
 mcoo # currently *does* print but wrongly:  as.matrix.csr(<matrix.coo>) fails to keep NA !!
#> Sparse matrix of class "matrix.coo" {use 'str(.)' to see the inner structure}:
