mat.read: Read Matrix Data from a File
In BioPhysConnectoR: BioPhysConnectoR

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s)

A matrix is constructed from a specified input file.

1	mat.read(file.name, ij = FALSE, sym = FALSE)

`file.name`	file name
`ij`	logical, if TRUE the format in the file is: i\quad j\quad value, otherwise each row of the file represents one row in the matrix
`sym`	logical, if TRUE the matrix is symmetric, only important if `ij` = TRUE

There are two ways a matrix can be specified in the input file. If each line represents a row in the matrix (default), the matrix can simply be read. Otherwise it is possible to have an input file with the form: i\quad j\quad value, this means the value at position [i,j] of the matrix is set to value. If ij = TRUE and sym = TRUE only one half of the matrix needs to be provided.

Return value is the matrix.
